EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "An Old House in Grasse" transports us back to the charming streets of this historic town on the French Riviera. The intricate details captured by Amedee Forestier, a renowned artist from the late 19th century, bring this old house to life. As we gaze upon the print, we are immediately drawn to the architectural beauty of this ancient dwelling. Its weathered facade tells tales of centuries gone by, with every crack and crevice revealing its rich history. The delicate engravings showcase the fine craftsmanship that went into constructing such a remarkable structure. Grasse itself is known for its fragrant perfumeries and picturesque landscapes, making it an ideal subject for Forestier's artistic eye. This artwork was originally featured in The Illustrated London News in April 1891, allowing readers from around the world to marvel at its beauty. The image invites us to imagine what stories lie within these walls – perhaps generations of families who called this place home or notable figures who sought solace within its embrace. It serves as a reminder of our connection to the past and how architecture can be a window into different eras. This enchanting engraving captures not only an old house but also our imagination as we delve into Grasse's fascinating history through art.
