This engraving takes us back to the 19th century, specifically to Avignon in France. The print showcases the charming city of Avignon, located in the Vaucluse department of Provence and Riviera. As we gaze upon this historic image, we are transported to a time when Avignon was an integral part of French history. The detailed illustration is taken from "Dictionnaire Francais Illustre des Mots et des Choses" by MM Larive et Fleury, published by George Chamerot in 1888. It beautifully captures the essence of Avignon's architecture and landscape during that era. Avignon's rich history as a papal residence during the 14th century is evident in this engraving. The buildings exude grandeur and elegance, showcasing intricate details that reflect its historical significance. The monochromatic palette adds a timeless quality to the image, emphasizing its historical value. This print serves as a window into an earlier period, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry of the engraver and the beauty of Avignon itself. As we delve into this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded not only of Avignon's importance within French history but also its place within Europe as a whole. This enchanting glimpse into early 19th-century France invites us to explore further and discover more about this fascinating region.
