EDITORS COMMENTS
The Lake in the Bois de Boulogne," a captivating drypoint engraving by Berthe Morisot, transports us to the picturesque shores of the Bois de Boulogne lake in Paris, France, during the late 19th century. Morisot, a prominent Impressionist painter and a student of Edouard Manet, skillfully captured the essence of this idyllic scene. The engraving, created on cream laid paper, showcases Morisot's mastery of the medium, with intricate lines and delicate tonal variations. In the foreground, a rowing boat glides effortlessly across the tranquil water, leaving ripples that dance in the sun. The lake, surrounded by lush greenery and trees, reflects the clear blue sky above. The Bois de Boulogne, an expansive park located in the western part of Paris, is a popular destination for Parisians and tourists alike, offering a welcome respite from the bustling city. Morisot's composition invites us to take a moment to appreciate the beauty of nature and the serenity of the lake. The trees, with their vibrant foliage, add depth and texture to the scene, while the boats on the water add a sense of movement and activity. The engraving is a testament to Morisot's ability to capture the essence of a moment in time and place. This beautiful work of art is now part of the permanent collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world. The Lake in the Bois de Boulogne is a must-see for anyone interested in Impressionist art, or for those who simply appreciate the beauty of nature and the artistry of a masterful printmaker.
