Pochoir (Hand coloured) lithograph from the ”Palais de Glace” portfolio by Georges Goursat (1863–1934), known as Sem. Masters like Sem, Lautrec and Cheret successfully depicted the environment of Patinage artistique – indoor ice–skating, which was an exceptionally popular leisure activity in Paris at the Belle Époque, with the Palais de Glace, on the Champs Elysees, in Paris being the most extremely fashionable location of the time.
