EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Woman smelling roses, 1895" transports us back to the enchanting world of the late 19th century. The image captures a moment frozen in time, as a woman delicately leans forward to inhale the sweet fragrance of a blooming rose. Her elegant posture and refined attire suggest she is an embodiment of grace and sophistication. Created by Henri Boutet, a renowned French illustrator from the Belle Époque era, this illustration was originally intended for a collection of poems by Hippolyte Devilliers. It beautifully complements Devilliers' lyrical verses with its intricate details and subtle use of color. The composition exudes an air of tranquility and contemplation. The woman's focused gaze suggests that she has momentarily escaped the hustle and bustle of everyday life to immerse herself in nature's beauty. The artist skillfully captures her sense of wonderment as she engages with these delicate blossoms. Boutet's mastery lies not only in his ability to depict botanical accuracy but also in his talent for infusing emotion into his illustrations. Through this artwork, he invites us to appreciate both the visual splendor and olfactory delight offered by nature's most cherished flower – the rose. As we admire this timeless piece, we are reminded that art has no expiration date; it continues to inspire generations long after its creation. This print serves as a testament to the enduring power of artistic expression throughout history.
