"The Flower Seller, Place De L'Opera, Paris" is a painting by French artist Victor-Gabriel Gilbert (1847–1933), known for his genre scenes and depictions of Parisian life during the Belle Époque. Gilbert's work often captures the bustling activity of Parisian markets and streets, and this painting is no exception. It portrays a flower seller, a common subject in 19th-century French art, set against the backdrop of the Place de l'Opéra, a significant public space in Paris that was, and still is, dominated by the Palais Garnier, the opulent opera house commissioned by Napoleon III and designed by Charles Garnier.

In this work, Gilbert's attention to detail is evident in the realistic portrayal of the flowers, the figures, and the urban setting. The composition likely features a mix of social classes, a characteristic element of Gilbert's work, which often includes both the vendors who cater to the bustling city life and the patrons who come from various backgrounds. The Place de l'Opéra, known for its grandeur and as a symbol of Parisian elegance, provides a contrasting backdrop to the simple, yet vibrant, activity of the flower selling, suggesting a dialogue between the everyday life of the Parisians and the more monumental aspects of the city's architecture.

Victor-Gabriel Gilbert was a student of Pierre Levasseur and exhibited at the Paris Salon, where he received several awards throughout his career. His paintings are celebrated for their vivid representation of Parisian society and contribute to the historical understanding of the urban landscape and culture during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

"The Flower Seller, Place De L'Opera, Paris" is emblematic of Gilbert's oeuvre, encapsulating the charm and liveliness of Parisian street life. The painting is appreciated for its historical value, as well as its aesthetic qualities, and is part of the rich tradition of French genre painting. While the exact date of creation for this particular piece may not be well-documented, it continues to be of interest to art historians and collectors who are fascinated by the Parisian scenes of the Belle Époque period.
