EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the grandeur of the Church of Saint John of Lateran, former commandery of the Order of Malta, before its unfortunate demolition in 1860. The intricate details and architectural beauty depicted in this 19th-century print transport us back to a time when this historic landmark stood proudly in Paris.
The Church of Saint John of Lateran was not only a place of worship but also held significant cultural and historical importance as part of the College de France. Its demolition was a decision made to regularize the surroundings, but it left behind a void that can never be filled.
As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the fleeting nature of man-made structures and how even the most magnificent buildings can succumb to progress. The engraving serves as a poignant reminder to cherish our heritage and preserve our architectural treasures for future generations.
Photo Josse has captured this moment in history with precision and artistry, allowing us to appreciate the beauty that once graced the streets of Paris. Let us remember the Church of Saint John of Lateran not for its demise, but for its enduring legacy that lives on through images like these.
