EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning College of Navarre, a renowned educational institution in Paris. The illustration, created by John Claude Nattes in 1806, beautifully captures the grandeur and architectural splendor of this historic building. The image transports us back to a time when students gathered water from a nearby well using wheelbarrows and pickaxes. It offers a glimpse into the everyday life at the university, where scholars engaged in deep philosophical discussions and theological debates under the Gothic arches that adorned the college's exterior. The College of Navarre holds great significance as it was also known as "Etablissement des Freres Piranesi" named after its founders, the esteemed Piranesi brothers. This connection adds an extra layer of historical importance to this remarkable artwork. As we admire this print from Versailles, Paris, and Saint Denis, we are reminded of France's rich cultural heritage and its commitment to education. The intricate details captured by Nattes allow us to appreciate not only his artistic talent but also his ability to transport us back in time. This particular piece is part of The Stapleton Collection and is now housed in a private collection. Its availability for public viewing allows art enthusiasts worldwide to marvel at its beauty while gaining insight into French history and academia during that era.
