EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures an intriguing scene from the past. Titled "Etude d avoue - in 'Jadis et aujourd hui' by Henri Monnier" this artwork by Leonard de Selva takes us back to Paris in 1827. The image showcases a notary's office, beautifully depicted through the art of engraving. The attention to detail is remarkable, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the world of the bourgeoisie during that time period. The caricature-like figures add a touch of humor and playfulness to the scene, bringing life to the otherwise formal setting. Henri Monnier, known for his satirical works, created this piece as part of his book "Jadis et aujourd hui" (Yesterday and Today). Published by Delpech in Paris, it offers a glimpse into various aspects of society at that time. Preserved within the Bibliotheque Historique de la Ville de Paris, this photograph provides us with a window into history. It reminds us of how much has changed over the years while also highlighting some enduring characteristics of human nature. Leonard de Selva skillfully captured this moment from Monnier's work, ensuring its preservation for generations to come. As we admire this print today, we are transported back in time and invited to reflect on our own society's evolution since then.
