"The Barrière des Champs-Élysées" is a notable aquatint print by French artist Philibert-Louis Debucourt, created in 1787. This work is part of a series that captures the vibrancy and social dynamics of Parisian life at the end of the 18th century. The print depicts the bustling activity around the Barrière des Champs-Élysées, one of the tollgates of the Farmers-General Wall, which was a tax wall encircling Paris.

Debucourt's piece is celebrated for its detailed representation of contemporary fashion, social interactions, and the architectural landscape of the time. The Barrière des Champs-Élysées serves not only as a historical record but also as a commentary on the social stratification and urban culture of pre-revolutionary France. The print showcases a variety of characters from different social classes, including the bourgeoisie, the peasantry, and the emerging middle class, all converging at this pivotal point in the city.

Philibert-Louis Debucourt (1755–1832) was a French painter and printmaker known for his genre scenes and for pioneering the aquatint technique in France. His works are characterized by their fine detail, vivid color, and the use of light and shadow to create depth, making "The Barrière des Champs-Élysées" a quintessential example of his artistic prowess. The print remains an important work for scholars studying the social history and material culture of the late 18th-century France, as well as for those interested in the development of printmaking techniques during this period.
