EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "La Sortie de bebe, 1878", Marcellin-Gilbert Desboutin captures a serene moment in the 19th century. The scene depicts a peaceful countryside setting where three people are present - a nanny, a woman, and an infant boy. The baby lies peacefully asleep in his perambulator while being gently pushed by the nanny. The engraved details highlight the intricate craftsmanship of Desboutin's work, showcasing his mastery of drypoint technique. The direct gaze from both the nanny and the woman adds depth to their characters, revealing their nurturing nature and care for the child. This portrait not only showcases a tender moment between caregiver and child but also provides insight into childcare practices during that era. It reflects on themes such as motherhood, occupation, and social roles assigned to women at that time. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this artwork is part of our rich heritage art collection. Its second state out of two demonstrates its historical significance as well as its artistic value. As we admire this beautiful print by Marcellin-Gilbert Desboutin, we are transported back in time to witness an intimate glimpse into infancy and early childhood in 19th-century France.
