EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in French history - the Promulgation of the Concordat of 1801. In this solemn scene, we witness the clergy of France swearing their allegiance to the concordat, placing it into the hands of none other than Napoleon Bonaparte himself, who stands as the first Consul. The event takes place within the grandeur of Notre Dame de Paris, with its majestic architecture serving as a backdrop to this historic occasion. The atmosphere is filled with reverence and anticipation as a representative from his Holiness looks on. It is Easter day, April 8th, 1802 - an auspicious date that adds further significance to this ceremony. The engraving beautifully captures every detail and emotion present in this pivotal moment for both church and state. Leonard de Selva's masterful photography brings forth not only historical accuracy but also an artistic flair that elevates this image beyond mere documentation. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of Napoleon's most important political achievements. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Musee de Notre Dame de Paris, we cannot help but marvel at how art has preserved such crucial moments in our collective memory. This photograph serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and our enduring fascination with history's defining moments.
