EDITORS COMMENTS
On the banks of the Seine" is a captivating engraving from the early 20th century, featured in the "Imagier de l'enfance" collection. The image transports us to a picturesque scene along the famous river in France. A child stands on a boat, gazing out at the tranquil waters with curiosity and wonder. The boat gently glides through the calm waves, serving as a means of transport for passengers. In this snapshot of daily life, we catch glimpses of French culture and European charm. Smoke billows from chimneys in nearby docks, hinting at bustling activity and domestic life along the riverbanks. In the background, we see a view of Paris - its iconic architecture blending harmoniously with nature's beauty. The artist Ferdinand Raffin masterfully captures this moment using intricate engravings that bring depth and texture to each detail. His illustrations throughout this album series were created for educational purposes, aimed at nurturing observation skills and language development among children. This particular print showcases not only Raffin's artistic talent but also his ability to evoke emotions through his work. It invites viewers to imagine themselves on that boat by the Seine, taking in all its sights and sounds. As we admire this enchanting piece from our private collection, let it serve as a reminder of simpler times and cherished memories along one of Europe's most beloved rivers.
