EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Marriage Of Ten Poor Girls, 1761" by Hubert Francois Gravelot, transports us back to a significant event in French history. The image depicts a scene from the 18th century where ten impoverished young women are being married off as part of a charitable initiative organized by the hospital foundation. The concept behind this engraving highlights both poverty and Christianity's role in society during that time period. It sheds light on the church's efforts to support those in need by providing them with marriage opportunities. The artist skillfully captures the emotions of hope and gratitude on the faces of these couples as they embark on their new journey together. Gravelot's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this piece. From the intricate clothing worn by each individual to the architectural elements surrounding them, he successfully transports us to this religious ceremony taking place in France. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how different life was for people living in poverty during the 18th and 19th centuries. It serves as a powerful reminder of our shared humanity and encourages us to reflect on how far we have come since then. Overall, Gravelot's "Marriage Of Ten Poor Girls" invites us into an intimate moment frozen in time - one that speaks volumes about love, faith, and compassion within a historical context.
