EDITORS COMMENTS
Emmanuel Phélippes-Beaulieu's captivating etching, The Big Shower (1859), transports us to the picturesque waterside of 19th century France. The scene unfolds as a man and woman, dressed in fashionable attire, take refuge under the shelter of umbrellas as a heavy rain pours down around them. Seated on the edge of a wooden rowboat, they watch as two men skillfully navigate the choppy waters with their oars. The rain-soaked trees and plants along the waterside add to the sense of serenity and tranquility, despite the inclement weather. Phélippes-Beaulieu expertly captures the essence of the moment, using the etching roulette and drypoint techniques on chine applique paper. The monochrome palette of black and white adds to the timeless quality of the artwork, making it a stunning addition to any art collection or gallery. The Big Shower is a testament to the beauty of nature, the elegance of fashion, and the simple pleasure of observing everyday life. This evocative piece invites us to appreciate the simple joys of a quiet moment at the water's edge, and to savor the rich heritage of French art.
