EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the interior of the former abbey church, Abbatiale Saint-Volusien de Foix, in all its grandeur. The focal point of the image is the choir seating, dating back to approximately 1670 and originally from the Saint-Sernin church in Toulouse. The craftsmanship and attention to detail evident in this piece of furniture are truly remarkable. Created by a French School artist from the 17th century, it exemplifies the artistry and skill prevalent during that era. The wood used for this exquisite seating adds warmth and richness to the overall composition. Located in Foix, Occitanie, France, within the historic walls of Abbatiale Saint-Volusien, this photograph transports viewers into a different time period. It captures not only an extraordinary work of art but also a glimpse into religious history. The atmosphere inside this building is serene and solemn as light streams through stained glass windows onto intricately carved sculptures adorning every corner. This particular shot focuses on one section of the interior scene but hints at a larger space filled with awe-inspiring architectural elements. Grotesque figures can be spotted among these intricate carvings, adding an element of mystery and intrigue to an already fascinating setting. These grotesques serve as reminders of both human imagination and spiritual symbolism. Through Paul Maeyaert's lens, we are granted access to a hidden gem tucked away within Ariege's picturesque landscapes—a testament to European heritage and artistic brilliance preserved over centuries. This print invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance as part of France's cultural tapestry.
