Abbe Aloud Aristocratic Attentive Delille Reciting Screen Verse
EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century print depicts the renowned French abbot, Abbe Delille, in the midst of reciting verse to a group of attentive aristocratic ladies. The scene takes place in a grand salon, where the ladies are seated in elegant chairs, some holding fans to shield themselves from the heat, while others peek out from behind delicate screens. The abbot, dressed in his clerical robes, stands before them, his hands held together in front of him as he reads aloud from a large, ornate book. The ladies listen intently, their eyes fixed on the abbot, their expressions one of rapt attention and admiration. The print captures a moment of communication and connection between the abbot and the aristocratic ladies, a testament to the power of the spoken word in the 18th century. The print also serves as a glimpse into the opulence and refinement of the aristocratic lifestyle during this era, with its grand decor, elegant furnishings, and fashionable attire. The print, titled 'Abbe Delille reciting verse to attentive aristocratic ladies,' is a beautiful and intriguing piece of historical art that transports us back in time to an era of elegance, refinement, and the power of the spoken word.
