EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, titled "Lacordaire courtyard, at the Carmelite convent, rue de Vaugirard, 1911," is a stunning work of art by the French photographer Georges-Emile Carette. The image transports us back in time to the early 20th century, specifically to the 6th arrondissement of Paris, where the Carmelite convent was located on rue de Vaugirard. The photograph showcases the beautiful autumnal scene of the convent's courtyard, with its intricately designed arches and columns framing the vibrant colors of the falling leaves. The trees in the courtyard are ablaze with hues of red, orange, and yellow, creating a breathtaking contrast against the gray stone walls of the convent. The painting-like quality of the photograph is a testament to Carette's exceptional skill as an artist. The use of oil on canvas material adds to the richness and depth of the image, capturing every detail of the scene with remarkable precision. The convent, founded by Jean Baptiste Henri Lacordaire in 1842, is a significant historical and religious institution in Paris. Lacordaire, a prominent figure in French Catholicism, played a crucial role in the revival of monastic life in France during the 19th century. The convent's beautiful architecture and serene courtyard have inspired countless artists and visitors over the years. This photograph is now part of the collection of the Carnavalet Museum in Paris, which holds an extensive collection of historic art and artifacts related to the city's history. The image is a valuable addition to the museum's holdings, showcasing not only the beauty of Paris but also the rich cultural and religious heritage of the city.
