EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "En loge pour le concours de Rome" takes us back to 19th century France, offering a glimpse into the prestigious world of French art establishments. The print, part of a private collection, showcases an illustration for Louis Rousselet's book "Nos Grandes Ecoles Militaires et Civiles" published by Hachette in 1888. In this digitally cleaned image, we see individuals gathered in a grand hall, elegantly dressed and seated in a box (loge). They are attending the renowned competition held at L'Ecole des Beaux-Arts (The School of Fine Arts) in Paris. This annual contest was highly regarded as it determined which artist would be awarded the opportunity to study and work at Villa Medici in Rome. The scene exudes an air of anticipation and excitement as these influential figures from French society come together to witness the unveiling of exceptional artistic talent. The engraving offers us a window into both historical and cultural aspects of France during this period. With its educational value, this artwork provides insight into the significance placed on artistic excellence within French culture. It serves as a reminder of the importance given to institutions like L'Ecole des Beaux-Arts that nurtured and celebrated creativity throughout history. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece through their fine art finder platform, allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty while immersing themselves in French history and heritage.
