EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the 12th century, where we find ourselves gazing at the magnificent Mont St Michel in Normandy, France. The French School of the 19th century skillfully captured this iconic landmark, showcasing its grandeur and religious significance. The image is taken from Emile Soldi's Les Arts Meconnus - Les Nouveaux Musees du Trocadero (Paris, 1881), providing a glimpse into the lesser-known arts of that time. The intricate details and meticulous craftsmanship highlight the artistry involved in creating this print. Mont St Michel stands proudly on an island amidst the sea, surrounded by boats navigating its waters. Its Gothic architecture and towering walls evoke a sense of awe and wonderment. This medieval abbey-monastery holds immense historical importance as it served as a place of pilgrimage during those times. As we delve deeper into this engraving, we are transported to an era characterized by Christian values and beliefs. Mont St Michel symbolizes not only architectural brilliance but also serves as a testament to Christianity's influence on European culture. With its rich history and breathtaking beauty, Mont St Michel continues to captivate visitors even today. This print allows us to appreciate its splendor while reminding us of France's cultural heritage and its significant role within Europe.
