EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Coutances, 1896" takes us back to the enchanting streets of a small French town in the late 19th century. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Charles John Watson, who beautifully captures the essence of Coutances with his keen eye for detail. In this bustling scene, we see a crowd of people going about their daily lives. Women dressed in elegant attire stroll along the narrow streets while men engage in various occupations. The architecture of the buildings reflects the Gothic charm that defines this picturesque location. Amidst all the activity, a flower girl catches our attention as she skillfully sells her vibrant blooms near an archway adorned with intricate architectural features. This religious setting is further emphasized by Coutances Cathedral towering majestically in the background. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this image, transporting us back to an era where trade and commerce thrived within these walls. Every element within this composition tells its own story - from the meticulously crafted furniture displayed outside shops to the lady gracefully seated on a chair nearby. Published in The Studio Volume 9 by Studio Publications in London during 1897, Watson's work continues to captivate viewers even today. This print serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece that celebrates not only Coutances' rich heritage but also showcases Watson's talent as an engraver and photographer extraordinaire.
