The Nurses' Tender Care - A Glimpse into Childhood in 19th Century France
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, titled "The nurses look after Guilleri (verse 6), 1880" offers a poignant snapshot of childhood in late nineteenth-century France. The image, measuring 27.5 x 18.5 cm, is part of the private collection belonging to Mademoiselle Lili and her cousin Lucien. In this scene, we witness the nurturing presence of dedicated nurses tending to young Guilleri's wounded limb with utmost care. As they sing soothing ballads and nursery rhymes, their melodious voices fill the room, creating an atmosphere of comfort and healing. The enchanting illustration was originally featured in Pierre-Jules Hetzel's publication "Songs and rounds from childhood" (1884-1886). Renowned illustrator Lorentz Froelich masterfully brought Hetzel's vision to life through his intricate drawings. Charles Emile Matthis and Charles Firmin Gillot skillfully engraved Froelich's work. This evocative print not only showcases the importance of physical health but also highlights the significance of tradition and customs within French society during that era. It serves as a reminder that even amidst injury or illness, music can provide solace and aid in recovery. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back to a time when compassionate nursing care played an integral role in restoring both physical well-being and emotional harmony for children like Guilleri.
