EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Ancienne statue de la Vierge, detruite en 1753, Porte de la Vierge" (Old Statue of the Virgin, destroyed in 1753, Gate of the Virgin). Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century and now held in a private collection, this engraving offers a glimpse into Parisian history. The image depicts a magnificent statue of the Virgin Mary that once stood proudly at the Gate of the Virgin. Sadly, it met its demise in 1753. The intricate details captured by the artist highlight both its beauty and grandeur. Originally featured as an illustration for "Paris A Travers Les Ages" (Paris Through The Ages) published by Firmin-Didot in 1875, this engraving serves as a poignant reminder of lost treasures from France's past. It is a testament to how art can preserve memories and provide insights into our cultural heritage. The location where this statue once stood was near Notre Dame Cathedral and Hôtel Dieu hospital. Its destruction marked a significant loss for Parisians who revered it as an important religious symbol. As we admire this artwork today, we are transported back to 18th-century France and reminded of the rich history that lies within every corner of Europe. This engraving captures not only artistic skill but also evokes emotions tied to faith and reverence for historical landmarks.
