1790 1869 Alphonse Lamartine Leaning Marie Prat Scroll Signature Nagel Sartain
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures a historic moment in literary history as three renowned figures of the 19th century come together in an intimate setting. The central figure is Alphonse-Marie-Louis de Prat de Lamartine (1790-1869), a French poet, journalist, and politician, who is known for his influential role in French literature and politics. He is depicted here in deep thought, leaning over a scroll, lost in the depths of his creativity. To his left, we see the face of a serious and introspective Theodore Chasseriau Nagel (b. 1818), a German-born painter who spent most of his career in France. Nagel was known for his portraits and historical paintings, and his skillful brushstrokes brought this gathering to life. On the right, we find the American-born artist, Thomas Satterwhite Sartain (1820-1897), who was a prominent figure in the French art scene. Sartain was a skilled engraver and etcher, and his contributions to the art world were significant. He is seen here, admiring the scene before him, perhaps capturing the moment for posterity through his art. This photograph print, from the vast collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, is a testament to the rich cultural exchange that took place during the 19th century. The image invites us to imagine the lively conversations and intellectual debates that must have taken place between these three influential figures, as they shared their thoughts and ideas on history, literature, and art. The scroll in Lamartine's hand, bearing his signature, serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of these great minds and the indelible mark they left on the world.
