EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Le Citoyen Aubourg, Mme Aubourg, et leur famille" transports us back to the late 18th or early 19th century in France. The image showcases Citizen Aubourg, Madame Aubourg, and their family engaged in a leisurely pastime. In this intimate scene captured by Baron Dominique Vivant Denon, we see a man and a woman sitting together while knitting. Their focused expressions reveal the concentration required for this traditional craft. Behind them stands a statue or statuette that adds an air of elegance to the composition. The photograph exudes an aura of tranquility as it invites us into the private world of this French family during that era. It provides us with a glimpse into their daily lives and highlights the importance of leisure activities as means of relaxation and connection. This artwork is part of the collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), showcasing its rich heritage in preserving historical pieces from around the world. Through Denon's skillful use of drypoint technique, he captures not only the physical appearance but also hints at the emotions and relationships within this family unit. As we admire this remarkable piece from Vivant Denon's portfolio, we are reminded once again how art can transcend time and allow us to connect with our ancestors through visual storytelling.
