Au Temps Des Aieux,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating painting from the early 20th century, brings to life a scene filled with history and enchantment. Circa 1921, this masterpiece by Emile Motte invites viewers to step into the past and experience a moment in time long gone. The painting's title, translated as "In The Time Of Our Ancestors," sets the stage for a journey back to a bygone era. The central figures in this evocative work include a gallant armoured knight, standing proudly amongst a pair of majestic horses and a loyal dog. Nearby, a regal lady wearing a crown graces the scene with her elegant presence, surrounded by four younger women and girls, each dressed in rich, vibrant garments. The woodland clearing, bathed in the warm glow of the sun, adds an air of tranquility and mystery to the painting. The lush greenery and dappled sunlight create a sense of harmony and balance, while the rich colours of the clothing and the intricate details of the figures' faces and expressions add depth and character to the scene. This exquisite painting was first published in a magazine, appearing in volume 15, August of an unspecified year. The captivating image has since been preserved and shared through the March of the Women Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and historical significance of Emile Motte's work. With its timeless charm and evocative imagery, "Au Temps Des Aieux" invites us to reflect on the past and the stories of our ancestors, while reminding us of the enduring power of art to transport us to another world.
