EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 12th century, capturing the essence of a room in Musee de Sculpture comparee, which would later become Musee des Monuments Francais. Taken around 1905 by Giraudon studio in Paris, France, this image showcases the remarkable interior of the museum. The photograph reveals an array of intricately carved sculptures and reliefs that adorn the walls. Amongst them is a striking depiction of Christ in Majesty, exuding divine power and grace. The moulage plaster cast from stone beautifully captures every detail of this religious iconography. The room itself boasts impressive architectural elements reminiscent of medieval basilicas. Columns with ornate capitals stand tall, creating a sense of grandeur and elegance. The central portal draws attention with its statuesque presence. This snapshot offers a glimpse into the world-renowned collection housed within Musee de Sculpture comparee. It showcases not only Gothic and Romanesque influences but also highlights the importance placed on preserving historical artifacts through moulages - reproductions created for study purposes. Bridgeman Images has masterfully captured this moment in time, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry behind these ancient works and their significance within French cultural heritage.
