EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable work of art by Jean Baptiste Pigalle, a renowned French sculptor from the 18th century. The image captures Pigalle's masterpiece, "Benitier shape of a shell on rock" which can be found in the Church of Saint-Sulpice in Paris, France. The sculpture itself is an exquisite representation of a shell-shaped benitier, or holy water font, resting upon a rocky base. Pigalle's attention to detail and skillful craftsmanship are evident in every curve and contour of this religious accessory. The delicate lines and intricate textures bring life to the stone structure, creating an awe-inspiring piece that resonates with both believers and art enthusiasts alike. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported back in time to 1745 when Pigalle first completed his creation for the Church Saint Sulpice. It serves as not only a symbol of baptism within Christianity but also as an embodiment of faith and devotion. Through this image captured by Photo Josse, we have the privilege to appreciate Pigalle's artistic genius while contemplating the profound significance that religious symbols hold within our lives. This print reminds us that art has always played an integral role in expressing spirituality throughout history.
