EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "A bard reciting the noble traditions of the family, 1882-1884" takes us back to a bygone era in France. The image is part of the renowned publication La France et les Francais a Travers les Siecles, Volume I, edited by F Roy and published in Saint-Antoine between 1882 and 1884. In this scene, we witness a mesmerizing moment as a Celtic bard stands tall in an ornate hall. With arms outstretched and eyes closed, he passionately recites the ancient tales that have shaped his country's noble traditions. His powerful presence commands attention from those gathered around him. The setting exudes an air of reverence and respect for literature and the arts. As people listen intently to every word uttered by the bard, their faces reflect both awe and admiration for their cultural heritage. The engraving captures not only the spirit of Gaul but also showcases French pride through its depiction of shields adorned with national symbols. This print serves as a reminder of how storytelling has played a vital role in preserving history throughout generations. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece from The Print Collector collection, it transports us back to an era where oral tradition held immense power—a time when bards were revered as guardians of knowledge and keepers of ancestral wisdom.
