This is the first glimpse into the enigmatic world of Nostradamus, as revealed in his Almanach of the Year 1557. Published in 1557, this book offered a fascinating insight into the prophetic mind of one of history's most renowned seers. Fast forward to the First World War, where an alliance between France, Belgium, and England marked a significant turning point in global conflicts. This historic collaboration was indeed a first of its kind, showcasing the power of unity against adversity. In Saint Remy de Provence stands the majestic Fountain of 1814 adorned with a bust honoring none other than Nostradamus himself. A testament to his enduring legacy and influence on generations to come. Princess Mathilde's marble bust from 1861 captures her regal elegance perfectly, complete with a golden crown befitting her royal status. It symbolizes not only her beauty but also represents another first - being crowned as royalty. The human comedy takes center stage with a mesmerizing marble mask created in 1876. This captivating artwork delves deep into the complexities and intricacies that define our existence - an artistic exploration like no other before it. General Louis Charles Antoine Desaix finds immortalization through both portrait and equestrian statue. The former showcases his distinguished features while capturing his essence as a military leader during the 19th century. The latter brings him to life on horseback, forever commemorating his bravery and strategic prowess. Finally, we journey to Upper Egypt through an oil painting from 1874 depicting a Shadouf – an ancient irrigation tool used for centuries along the Nile River banks. This remarkable artwork transports us back in time to witness firsthand how innovation shaped agricultural practices long ago - yet another 'first' that revolutionized farming techniques. From prophecies penned by Nostradamus himself to alliances forged amidst war; from majestic fountains celebrating visionary minds to captivating artworks that unravel the human experience.
