EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Cahors, France in 1937. The focal point of this image is the magnificent Pont Valentre, a 14th-century bridge that proudly stands as the best-preserved medieval bridge in all of Europe. Its architectural grandeur and historical significance are beautifully captured by artist Martin Hurlimann. The Pont Valentre gracefully spans over the River Lot, its towers majestically reflecting on the calm waters below. This monochrome masterpiece showcases not only the intricate archways and stunning design of the bridge but also highlights the breathtaking landscape surrounding it. Hurlimann's illustration was featured in his renowned work "Frankreich: Baukunst, Landschaft Und Volksleben" which delved into French architecture, landscapes, and people during that era. Through his lens, he transports us to a time where medieval charm blended seamlessly with natural beauty. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but be transported to an era long gone - a time when knights may have crossed these very arches on noble quests or merchants traversed its path for trade. It serves as a reminder of our rich history and cultural heritage. This remarkable piece from Martin Hurlimann allows us to appreciate both the architectural marvels created by human hands and nature's awe-inspiring wonders that surround them.
