EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of "Le Silence" a medallion sculpture created by Auguste Preault in 1842. The sculpture, belonging to the romantic movement, was designed to adorn the tomb of Jacob Robles at the Pere Lachaise cemetery in Paris. Intriguingly, "Le Silence" depicts a somber figure with lips sealed shut, evoking a sense of mystery and contemplation. The funereal motif adds an air of melancholy to the piece, reflecting the emotions often associated with death and loss. The photograph beautifully showcases the intricate details of Preault's work. Every line and curve is meticulously captured by photographer Kim Youngtae, highlighting both the skillful craftsmanship and emotional depth conveyed through this sculptural masterpiece. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to 19th-century France when Romanticism flourished as an artistic movement. It serves as a reminder that art has always been a powerful medium for expressing complex human emotions and exploring existential themes such as mortality. Kim Youngtae's photography allows us to appreciate not only Preault's creation but also his own talent in capturing its essence. Through his lens, he invites us into a world where silence speaks volumes and where art transcends time. Overall, this photograph offers viewers an opportunity to engage with history, emotion, and beauty all at once—a testament to both Preault's artistic vision and Kim Youngtae's ability to capture it on film.
