Esquisse pour la salle des mariages de la mairie de Saint-Maur-des-Fossés - Patrie, 1883
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating artwork created by the skilled French Impressionist painter, Edouard Michel Lancon. This masterpiece, dated back to the late 19th century, is an oil on canvas painting that showcases a heartwarming scene of a family bidding farewell as their son prepares to enlist for the Third Republic. The painting depicts a cozy interior of the Saint-Maur-des-Fosses town hall's marriage room, adorned with intricate interior decoration and design elements typical of the era. The room is filled with a sense of warmth and nostalgia as a father, dressed in formal attire, embraces his son, who is wearing a military uniform. The boy's younger brother looks on, seemingly curious about the proceedings. His mother, with a tender expression, watches the emotional scene unfold, her hand gently touching her husband's shoulder for support. The title "Patrie" translates to "Fatherland" in English, emphasizing the patriotic undertones of the painting. The use of rich oil paint and the artist's skillful brushstrokes bring the scene to life, capturing the essence of family, love, and the sacrifices made for one's country during the Third Republic. This artwork is a significant piece of French heritage and is now a part of the collection at the Petit Palais Museum in Paris. It is a testament to the enduring bond between family and the deep sense of pride and duty that comes with being a part of a nation. The painting is a beautiful reminder of the importance of cherishing our roots and the memories that shape us as individuals and as a society.
