EDITORS COMMENTS
Esquisse pour l'église Notre-Dame-de-Clignancourt: La Naissance de la Vierge" (Sketch for the Notre-Dame-de-Clignancourt church: The Birth of the Virgin), created by the French artist Nélie Barbe Hyacinthe Jacquemart in 1866, captures a poignant and intimate moment in the life of the Virgin Mary. The painting depicts the Virgin lying on a bed in a bedroom, surrounded by midwives and women in traditional French country attire. The newborn baby lies on a bed of soft, colorful fabric next to her mother, with a midwife assisting in the delivery. The room is filled with a sense of warmth and calm, reflecting the joy and wonder of the birth of a child. The painting is a sketch for a larger work intended for the Notre-Dame-de-Clignancourt church in Paris' 18th arrondissement. Nélie Barbe Hyacinthe Jacquemart, born in 1832, was a prolific painter and sculptor, known for her realistic and emotive depictions of women and children. This work showcases her exceptional skill in capturing the delicate and tender moments of motherhood and the importance of family and community in 19th century France. The painting is an oil on canvas work, measuring approximately 31.5 x 25.5 cm, and is now part of the collection of the Petit Palais Museum in Paris. It is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of France and the enduring themes of Christianity, family, and motherhood that continue to resonate with audiences today.
