EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Saint Barthelemy, 1726" takes us back to the 18th century and showcases the artistic brilliance of Etienne Brion. Inspired by Francois Boucher's work, this engraving beautifully captures Saint Bartholomew, one of the apostles mentioned in the New Testament. In this portrait, we see a distinguished male figure standing with grace and poise. His eyes are fixed upwards as if engaged in deep prayer or contemplation. With his hand gently gesturing towards heaven, it is evident that Saint Bartholomew is deeply connected to his faith and spirituality. Etienne Brion's attention to detail shines through in every stroke of his quill pen. The intricate etching brings out the delicate features of Saint Bartholomew's face while also highlighting his flowing robes and serene expression. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to a different time and place – France during the Rococo period. This piece not only serves as a testament to Brion's talent but also reflects the rich heritage of French artistry. Now preserved within The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, this print allows us to appreciate both religious devotion and artistic mastery from centuries ago. It reminds us that art has always been intertwined with religion throughout history – an enduring connection that continues to inspire countless individuals today.
