EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Paris, capturing the iconic Notre Dame Cathedral standing proudly along the banks of the River Seine. The image, taken between 1870 and 1920 by artist Jean Francois Raffaelli, showcases a horse-drawn cart passing by this magnificent architectural masterpiece. The photogravure print is part of a publication titled "A History of French Etching from the 16th Century to the Present Day" authored by F L Leipnik and published in London in 1924. It belongs to the esteemed collection of L'Estampe Moderne in Paris. Raffaelli's composition beautifully portrays both the grandeur of Notre Dame de Paris and its connection to everyday life. The bridge leading up to it serves as a symbol of connection between past and present, faith and reality. This juxtaposition highlights not only France's rich religious heritage but also its vibrant history. As we gaze upon this monochrome panorama, we can't help but be transported to an era where horse-drawn vehicles were still prevalent on city streets. The timeless beauty captured within this image reminds us that even amidst progress and change, certain landmarks continue to stand tall as testaments to our shared cultural heritage. Jean Francois Raffaelli's skillful depiction invites us into a moment frozen in time—a glimpse into early twentieth-century Parisian life where religion meets architecture against the picturesque backdrop of the River Seine.
