EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases a maquette, or model, of the decorative scheme for the Chapelle des Morts, also known as the Chapelle des Ames, in the Église Notre-Dame-de-Lorette in Paris, France. Created by Merry Joseph Blondel around 1836, this neoclassical masterpiece is a testament to the rich artistic and cultural heritage of the 19th century. The model depicts various elements of the chapel's decorative program. At the center, God the Father, Christ, and the Virgin Mary are shown, surrounded by angels of the Last Judgment and angels playing musical instruments. Above the entrance, the Resurrection of Christ is depicted on the tympanum. The intricately detailed model is adorned with gold gilding, adding to the opulence and grandeur of the design. Two figures are depicted in the model: a man with an arm raised in a gesturing posture, possibly representing a saint in martyrdom, and a kneeling figure, possibly a penitent. The martyr is shown with a sword or swords, symbolizing the violent end he met for his faith. The use of oil paint and plaster in the model adds to its authenticity and historical significance. This maquette is a valuable addition to any collection of 19th century architecture, urbanism, and decorative arts. It provides a glimpse into the intricacies of neoclassical design and the religious themes that dominated the art and culture of the time. Today, this model can be found in the collections of various museums and institutions, including the Petit Palais in Paris, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors.
