EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the interior of the former abbey church, Abbatiale Saint-Volusien de Foix, in all its grandeur. The focal point of the image is the choir seating, dating back to approximately 1670 and originally from the Saint-Sernin church in Toulouse. The French School of the 17th century skillfully captured this remarkable piece of furniture that holds historical significance. Crafted from wood, these timbers exude an air of elegance and craftsmanship that was characteristic of this era. Located in Foix, Occitanie, France, the Abbatiale Saint-Volusien stands as a testament to architectural brilliance and religious devotion. Its rich history is palpable within every corner of its walls. Paul Maeyaert's expert photography allows us to immerse ourselves in this stunning interior scene. The intricate details and exquisite sculptures adorning the space add depth and beauty to an already impressive setting. As we gaze upon this photograph print, we are transported back in time to a period when art flourished and churches were not only places for worship but also centers for artistic expression. The juxtaposition between light and shadow creates a mesmerizing effect that adds drama to this composition. It highlights both the delicate features of each grotesque sculpture while casting an ethereal glow on their surroundings. This artwork serves as a reminder of our cultural heritage and invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also its historical significance. It reminds us that even centuries later, these masterpieces continue to inspire awe and admiration. © Paul Maeyaert has masterfully captured this moment in time with his keen eye for detail and composition. Through his lens, he invites us into a world where artistry meets spirituality—a world where past meets present—and leaves us longing for more glimpses into history's treasures.
