EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty of the "Portrait of Agricol Perdiguier known as Avignonais". Standing proudly on the banks of the majestic river Rhone at Avignon, this painting captures a moment frozen in time during the mid-19th century. The oil on panel artwork, created by an anonymous French artist from that era, is housed in Musee du Palais de Compiegne in France. Agricol Perdiguier, also known as Avignonais, exudes elegance and sophistication in his attire. Dressed impeccably with a top hat adorning his head and holding a walking stick made of wood with intricate details, he embodies grace and refinement. As a carpenter belonging to an association called compagnons menuisiers or guild workers, Agricol's sash proudly displays his journeyman status within the trade union. The composition beautifully captures both strength and poise as Agricol gazes into the distance. His presence commands attention while standing against the backdrop of flowing waters symbolizing life's constant movement. This remarkable portrait serves as a testament to not only Agricol's individuality but also to the rich history and craftsmanship associated with carpentry during that period. It reminds us of our connection to past generations who dedicated their lives to their chosen trades. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this piece through eArchives Charmet for all art enthusiasts to appreciate its historical significance today.
