EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "The Story that Stops Time" takes us back to the 18th century in France, where allegory and symbolism were at their peak. Created by Charles-Nicolas Cochin, this black and white masterpiece captures the essence of a metaphysical tale. Intriguingly, the image showcases an allegorical figure with wings, symbolizing time itself being halted. The presence of both men and women signifies that time affects all genders equally. A man is seen holding a quill pen while a woman holds a scythe, representing the power of writing and its ability to shape history. Coins and crowns scattered throughout the scene emphasize finance as an integral part of society during this era. The engraving technique used adds depth to each intricate detail on display. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork, it becomes apparent that Cochin skillfully intertwines elements from various aspects of life – money, literature, gender roles – creating a thought-provoking narrative frozen in time. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (the Met), this piece serves as a testament to Cochin's artistic prowess and his ability to capture complex ideas within one frame. It invites viewers to reflect upon our own relationship with time and how it influences our lives today. This photograph print not only preserves historical heritage but also acts as an invitation for contemplation on timeless themes that continue to resonate with audiences centuries later.
