EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century photograph print showcases a maquette, or model, of the decorative scheme for the Chapelle des Morts, also known as the Chapelle des Ames, within the Église Notre-Dame-de-Lorette in Paris. Created by the renowned French artist Merry Joseph Blondel around 1836, this intricately detailed model brings to life the neoclassical interior of the chapel. The central focus of the composition is the depiction of God the Father, Christ, and the Virgin Mary, surrounded by angels. Angels of the Last Judgment and angels playing musical instruments are also featured, adding an ethereal and musical quality to the design. The resurrection of Christ is depicted on the tympanum of the entrance, while the martyrdom of a saint is shown elsewhere in the composition. The model is richly decorated with gilding and oil painting, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The use of gold and gilt adds an opulent touch to the design, while the soft colors and delicate plaster details add to the overall elegance and sophistication of the piece. The Chapelle des Morts was a significant part of the Église Notre-Dame-de-Lorette, which was known for its impressive neoclassical architecture and interior decoration. This model provides a glimpse into the intricacies of the chapel's design and the artistic vision of Merry Joseph Blondel. Today, it can be found in the collections of the Petit Palais museum in Paris, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors with its beauty and historical significance.
