EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white etching, titled "Papal Promenade Along The Saône, 1805," is a captivating work of art by Jean-Jacques de Boissieu. The image transports us back in time to a moment in history when the Papal procession made its way along the picturesque Saône River in France. The meticulously etched details of the scene reveal the grandeur and opulence of the event, with ornate boats carrying the Pope and his entourage, surrounded by a flotilla of smaller vessels carrying onlookers. The architectural backdrop of the city's buildings and bridges adds to the sense of history and tradition. The drypoint and roulette technique used by Boissieu lends an exquisite texture to the image, with the intricate lines and tonal variations creating a sense of depth and dimension. The scene is set on a sunny day, with the reflection of the sunlight on the water adding to the overall beauty of the image. This etching is a testament to the artistic talent of Jean-Jacques de Boissieu and offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the rich cultural heritage of France during the 19th century. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York is fortunate to have this work in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the artistry and historical significance of this remarkable piece.
