Time travel to belle époque Paris of 1902 for a peaceful stroll in the Bois de Boulogne. Restored using Deep AI enhanced colorization and sound techniques. The film begins at the Porte Dauphine entrance to Bois de Boulogne. You might spot an early French automobile scooting by in the first few frames - a De Dion Bouton. Though horse drawn carriages were still the principle transport, the new automobiles were quickly making their noisy presence felt by the early 1900s. 19th century fashion was still evident in the early 1900s. Large picture hats, festooned with flowers. Women’s Hairstyles were increasingly rolled into pompadour styles, on to which which a hat could be safely pinned. The exact date is unclear but the ladies walking skirts are still long and require hoisting, so this film was probably made circa 1902. The Bois de Boulogne was ceded to the citizens of Paris by Emperor Napoleon III in 1852, was once an ancient oak forest. There are several lakes, botanical and floral gardens, a zoo and an amusement park. Many equestrian events and open air theater took place here during the belle epoch. To the east of the Bois de Boulogne is the Parc de Bagatelle. To the north, the Jardin d’Acclimatation and to the South-east, the greenhouses of Le Jardin des Serres d’Auteuil.
