EDITORS COMMENTS
This gelatin silver print, titled "Le Pont-Neuf, les quais, les bains 'A la Samaritaine' et la Tour St Jacques" transports us back to the enchanting streets of 19th century Paris. Captured by the talented photographer Hippolyte Bayard in 1847 and printed in 1965 as part of his portfolio "Bayard: xxv calotypes, 1842-1850" this image showcases a bustling scene along the River Seine. In the foreground, we see floating baths gracefully gliding on the tranquil waters of the river. These bathhouses were a popular attraction during that era and provided an escape for Parisians seeking relaxation and rejuvenation. The black and white tones add a timeless quality to this snapshot of history. The iconic landmarks of Le Pont-Neuf bridge and Tour St Jacques tower stand proudly in the background, reminding us of Paris's rich architectural heritage. The buildings lining the riverbank exude charm with their classic French design. Bayard's composition skillfully captures both movement and stillness simultaneously - boats dotting the river create a sense of activity while also conveying a peaceful atmosphere. This photograph offers us a glimpse into daily life in France during this period. As we admire this remarkable piece from Heritage Images at Art Institute Chicago's gallery, we are transported to another time and place where artistry meets history on every corner.
