The work depicts the landscape the painter himself saw from his apartment on June 30, 1878, a day that had recently been declared a national holiday under the name of "Day of Peace." A period of prosperity followed after tumultuous times in French society. Behind lay the bloody Franco-Prussian War and the division of Paris, which had devastated France less than a decade ago.
The characters in the painting, rich and poor, and the street adorned with national flags, depict an emotional and optimistic view of the situation and the times to come.
