EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the enchanting streets of Rouen in 1896. The image showcases the bustling Place de la Haute Vieille Tour, with its magnificent medieval tower standing tall against the sky. In the foreground, we see an intricately designed edicule called "Edicule de la Fierte" which adds a touch of grandeur to this historic square. The wood engraving technique used by Auguste Louis Lepère brings out every intricate detail of this scene, capturing the essence of 19th-century France. Lepère's artistic prowess is evident in his ability to depict both architectural precision and lively street activity within a single frame. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from The Cleveland Museum of Art's collection, we can't help but feel transported into another era. It serves as a testament to French heritage art and reminds us of the rich cultural history that exists within our world. Heritage Images has preserved this invaluable snapshot for generations to come, allowing us all to appreciate and cherish moments frozen in time like these. This print is not just a work of art; it is a window into history itself – an invitation to explore and immerse ourselves in the beauty that lies beyond our own time.
