Amour Augustin Legrand Maternal Pray Prayer Shawl Tenderness Tendresse Veil
EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful hand-colored copperplate engraving, titled "Mother with Child Praying on Her Lap," is an exquisite depiction of maternal love and tenderness, taken from Augustin Legrand's Amour et Tendresse (Love and Tenderness) series, published by Louis Janet in Paris in 1820. The image captures a profound moment of connection between a mother and her young child as they engage in a heartfelt prayer. The mother, dressed in a flowing robe and shawl, cradles her baby gently in her arms, while the child, wrapped in a soft veil, gazes up at her with a look of trust and devotion. The scene is set in a cozy, intimate space, with the mother and child seated on a plush chair, surrounded by the warm glow of natural light filtering through the window. The intricate details of the engraving, from the delicate folds of the mother's robe to the soft, expressive lines of their faces, convey a sense of tranquility and peace. This timeless image reminds us of the power of love, compassion, and the deep bond between a mother and her child.
