EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Passage Pommeraye in Nantes, France. Taken in 1841 by Benoist Felix, this lithograph showcases the architectural marvel created by solicitor Louis Pommeraye. The image depicts a female figure gracefully descending the steps of this provincial gem, while a male passerby strolls leisurely nearby. Passage Pommeraye is renowned for its three levels of shopping galleries, designed by architects Jean Baptiste Buron and Hippolyte Durand-Gasselin. The glass roof allows natural light to flood the space, illuminating the stucco arcades adorned with intricate sculptures and statues. Every column tells a story as visitors meander through this commercial gallery. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of Western France's charm and elegance. It transports viewers back in time to an era when taking a leisurely stroll through such grandeur was considered a delightful pastime. With its stunning details and impeccable craftsmanship, it is no wonder that this piece has found its place within the Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply appreciate historical architecture, this print offers a glimpse into Brittany's rich cultural heritage along the Loire River. Let yourself be transported to another time as you admire each carefully crafted statue and explore every corner of Passage Pommeraye through Benoist Felix's lens.
