Summary "L'Illustration, No. 2506, 7 Mars 1891" by Various is a historical periodical written in the late 19th century. This publication provides a vivid snapshot of contemporary society, cultural events, and the political climate of the time, featuring topics such as theatrical performances, societal norms, and political debates that were relevant to the Parisian audience. The opening of this issue features a variety of articles and narratives, starting with commentaries on recent events that have stirred the nation. The author reflects on the contradictions of societal norms surrounding gambling, particularly in relation to horse racing, alongside a satirical look at the lively Parisian social scene, including dance lessons and the upcoming Grand Prix. Discussions around political decisions and their implications illustrate the tension between public morality and private vices, setting the stage for a broader critique of social attitudes in 1891 France. Various characters, from the clown Lavater to the dance instructor Nini Patte-en-l'Air, bring this dynamic world to life, revealing the complex interplay between art, society, and politics of the time.
