EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white print, titled "Le Midy" by Jacques Philippe Le Bas, dates back to the 18th century and offers a glimpse into the picturesque landscapes of France during that era. The engraving on paper, created by Le Bas in 1742, showcases a serene rural scene with a man and a woman riding horses along a winding country road. The exterior setting is idyllic, with lush greenery, rolling hills, and a clear blue sky overhead. The male rider, dressed in the fashion of the time, is depicted with a confident and determined expression, while the female rider, with her elegant attire and graceful posture, adds an air of sophistication to the scene. The print is attributed to the renowned Dutch artist Claes Pietersz Berchem, who was known for his detailed and realistic landscapes. However, there is some debate among art historians regarding the attribution of this particular work to Berchem or his son Nicolaes Berchem the Elder. Regardless, it is clear that this print represents the rich artistic heritage of the 18th century, and serves as a reminder of the beauty and charm of the past. The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to have this rare and beautiful work in its permanent collection, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The monochrome palette of the print adds to its timeless appeal, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art and the beauty of the natural world.
