Frank Myers Boggs was an American-born artist known for his atmospheric depictions of urban landscapes, particularly in Paris. "La Place de la Bastille en 1882" is one of his notable works, capturing the essence of the Place de la Bastille, a historic square in Paris, in the late 19th century. This painting reflects Boggs' fascination with the interplay of light and shadow, as well as his ability to convey the bustling energy of city life.

The Place de la Bastille holds significant historical importance as the site of the Bastille prison, whose storming in 1789 marked a pivotal event in the French Revolution. By 1882, the area had transformed into a vibrant hub of activity, symbolizing both the revolutionary past and the modernity of Paris. Boggs' painting captures this duality, showcasing the architectural elements and the lively atmosphere of the square.

Boggs' technique is characterized by loose brushwork and a subtle palette, which together create a sense of movement and immediacy. His attention to detail is evident in the depiction of the people, carriages, and buildings that populate the scene, offering a glimpse into the daily life of Parisians during this period. The artist's use of light is particularly noteworthy, as it enhances the mood and depth of the composition.

Although Boggs was born in Springfield, Ohio, in 1855, he spent much of his career in France, where he became associated with the Impressionist movement. His works often reflect the influence of contemporaries such as Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro, yet he maintained a distinct style that set him apart. "La Place de la Bastille en 1882" exemplifies his ability to blend realism with impressionistic elements, capturing the spirit of a city in transition.

Today, Boggs' paintings are appreciated for their historical and artistic value, offering insights into the urban landscapes of 19th-century Paris. His works are held in various collections around the world, continuing to captivate audiences with their charm and historical resonance.
