EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the interior of the former abbey church, Abbatiale Saint-Volusien de Foix, in all its grandeur. The focus of the image is on the choir seating, which dates back to approximately 1670 and originates from the renowned Saint-Sernin church in Toulouse. The photograph captures a moment frozen in time, allowing us to marvel at the exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating this masterpiece. The intricate woodwork and timbers used in constructing the choir seating are a testament to the skill of artisans from the 17th century French School. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of furniture, we can't help but be transported back to a bygone era when such works of art were not only functional but also served as expressions of beauty and devotion within religious spaces. The setting itself adds to the allure of this image. Located in Foix, Occitanie, France, within what was once an abbey church dedicated to Saint Volusien, it exudes an aura of history and spirituality. The room's interior scene is bathed in soft light that enhances every curve and contour carved into these wooden sculptures. One cannot help but be drawn into this enchanting photograph by Paul Maeyaert. It invites us to explore every nook and cranny with our eyes - from grotesque figures adorning pillars to delicate details etched onto each seatback. In capturing this stunning composition, Maeyaert has preserved a slice of artistry from centuries past for us all to admire today. This print serves as a reminder that great works endure through time while inspiring awe and wonder for generations yet unborn.
