EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting town of Grasse in all its historic glory. Taken from an engraving by Charles Auguste Loye, this image transports us back to 1891 when it was featured in The Illustrated London News. The scene captures the essence of Grasse's charm, with its grand hotel and picturesque Le Bar nestled amidst the stunning French Riviera landscape. The River Siagne gracefully flows through the town, adding a touch of serenity to the bustling architecture. Notably, we can spot the English church standing proudly among the neighborhood's occupied historic houses. It is said that even royalty has visited this quaint corner of France, as hinted by references to a queen. Loye's artistic prowess shines through in his intricate illustration, capturing every minute detail with precision and elegance. His work reflects not only his talent but also offers insight into French culture and European history during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported to a time long gone yet forever preserved within these lines and strokes. It serves as a reminder of Grasse's enduring beauty and its place within both French and European heritage.
