EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Tourelle Rue de l Ecole de Medecine, 22" transports us back to 19th century Paris. The image showcases a stunning house with a turret, located at No 22, rue de l Ecole de Medecine. Known as the Turret of Marat, this architectural gem was captured by Charles Meryon in 1861 or later. The etching with drypoint technique used by Meryon adds depth and texture to the scene, highlighting the intricate details of the building's exterior. The monochromatic palette emphasizes the timeless beauty of this French heritage art piece. Set against the backdrop of Ile-de-France's picturesque landscape, this photograph captures more than just architecture. It offers a glimpse into daily life in Paris during that era. People can be seen strolling along the street below, adding a sense of movement and liveliness to an otherwise still image. As our eyes wander through this mesmerizing composition, we are drawn to the juxtaposition between urbanity and nature. The house stands tall amidst its surroundings while maintaining an air of elegance and charm. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this artwork invites viewers to appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its historical significance. Through Meryon's lens, we are transported back in time to experience Parisian life in all its glory – from bustling streets to architectural wonders like this magnificent turret house.
