The Chapel of the Enfants-Trouves in Paris - Religieuses et garconnets regardant la creche, 1757
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to 18th century France. Created by Etienne Fessard, this artwork showcases the intimate scene of nuns and children gazing at the nativity scene within the chapel. The image transports us to a time when religion played a central role in society, as evidenced by the presence of religious figures and their young charges. The foundling hospital, known as Hopital des Enfants-Trouves, served as an institution for abandoned children who were taken care of by devoted nuns. Etched with precision and detail, Fessard's work captures not only the physical features but also the emotions felt within this sacred space. The trompe l'oeil technique used in this engraving creates an illusionary effect on the wall painting behind them, adding depth and realism to the overall composition. As we observe this historical moment frozen in time, we are reminded of both the challenges faced by these orphaned children and their resilience nurtured under religious guidance. The key symbolizes hope for a better future while unlocking opportunities for these youngsters. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this remarkable piece serves as a testament to French heritage and artistic mastery during that era. It invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as faith, compassion, and community – timeless values that continue to resonate
