EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of the inner courtyard at Port-Royal-des-Champs, an abbey located in Magny-Les-Hameaux, France. The anonymous painting from the 18th century showcases the exquisite architecture and peaceful ambiance that characterized this religious sanctuary. The image depicts a group of Aumones, members of a religious order dedicated to charity and equity, gathered in the courtyard. They are seen engaged in their quest for spiritual enlightenment and solidarity with one another. The French school's masterful brushstrokes bring life to this historical scene, evoking a sense of reverence and devotion. Port-Royal-des-Champs holds significant importance within French history as it was closely associated with Jansenism, a theological movement that emphasized strict adherence to Catholic doctrine. This connection adds depth to the portrayal of clergy members engaging in acts of piety amidst these hallowed grounds. The photograph is part of Musee de Port-Royal des Champs' collection at Musee des Baranges in Port Royal. Its inclusion here allows viewers to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. As we gaze upon this masterpiece captured by Photo Josse, we are transported back to 18th-century France—a time when faith and spirituality played vital roles in society. It serves as a reminder of our shared human quest for meaning and purpose beyond material pursuits.
