EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the enchanting city of Paris in the year 1749. Taken from the vantage point of Pont Neuf, we are treated to a breathtaking view that stretches towards Pont Royal. The image, originally an engraving by Remigius Parr after a work by Jacques Rigaud, has been skillfully colorized, bringing new life and vibrancy to this historical masterpiece. The cityscape before us is a testament to the rich history and charm that has made Paris an enduring symbol of beauty and romance. As we gaze upon the scene, we can almost imagine ourselves strolling along the banks of the River Seine or crossing one of its iconic bridges. Every detail captured in this illustration speaks volumes about life in 18th century Paris. From the elegant architecture lining both sides of the river to bustling streets filled with fashionable Parisians going about their daily lives, it is truly a glimpse into another era. Thanks to Ken Welsh's expert photography skills, this archival gem has been preserved for future generations to appreciate and admire. It serves as a reminder not only of Paris' timeless allure but also of our shared human history. As we immerse ourselves in this mesmerizing print, let us take a moment to reflect on how much has changed since 1749 while appreciating those aspects that have remained constant throughout centuries - namely, our fascination with capturing moments frozen in time through artistry and photography.
