Chez les Trappistes
EDITORS COMMENTS
(At the Trappist Monastery), created by the Belgian artist Félicien Rops in 1891, is a captivating black and white illustration that transports us back in time to the quiet and contemplative world of a Trappist monastery in Flanders, Belgium during the late 19th century. This edition of 50, printed as a heliogravure after a lithograph and etching on Japan paper, showcases the masterful skill of Rops in capturing the essence of monastic life. The image features a group of monks and nuns engaged in various activities, from reading and writing to prayer and contemplation. The male and female figures, dressed in their traditional habits, are depicted with a sense of calm and introspection, embodying the spiritual devotion and discipline that characterized Trappist monasteries during this period. The use of black and white in this print adds to the overall mood of the image, creating a sense of timelessness and nostalgia. The contrast between the white robes of the monks and nuns and the dark background further emphasizes the monastic community's separation from the outside world. Rops' "Chez les Trappistes" is an important work of art that offers a glimpse into the history and heritage of Christianity in Europe during the 19th century. It is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences from around the world. The print is a testament to Rops' artistic vision and his ability to capture the essence of a bygone era in a way that continues to resonate with viewers today.
