EDITORS COMMENTS
Hubert Robert's captivating oil on canvas painting, "The Fire of Hôtel-Dieu in Paris 1772," offers a glimpse into the dramatic past of one of the oldest hospitals in the world. Established in 829 CE, Hôtel-Dieu, or "God Shelter," is the oldest hospital in France and possibly the oldest continuously operating hospital globally. The historic building, located on the Île de la Cité in Paris, has endured numerous fires throughout its long history. In this late 18th-century artwork, the flames consume the Hôtel-Dieu, casting an eerie orange glow over the cityscape. The Cathedral of Notre-Dame, a prominent feature in the background, stands tall and resilient against the backdrop of the burning hospital. The River Seine, reflecting the flickering flames, adds to the sense of chaos and destruction. Hubert Robert, known as "Robert of the Ruins," masterfully captures the intensity of the fire, with flames leaping high into the night sky. The painting's vibrant colors and intricate details bring the scene to life, transporting the viewer to the heart of Paris during a pivotal moment in its history. This painting is a testament to the enduring spirit of the city and its people, as they faced the challenges of the past. Today, the painting is a cherished piece of art history, housed in the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences.
