To See and Be Seen
1792
The Parisian beau monde in the garden of the Palais Royal – still the most popular spot to stroll, gossip and flirt in 1792. The garden was opened to the public in the 1780s. The lower classes and ‘women of ill-repute’ congregated in the shops and cafés under the arcades, while the upper echelons of society met beneath the canopy of trees in the garden.
