Little Marie (La petite Marie)
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print created by the talented artist Alphonse Legros in the 19th century. This exquisite piece of art can be found at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, showcasing Legros' mastery in engraving and drypoint techniques. The portrait depicts a young French girl named Marie, with her long hair cascading down her shoulders. Her direct gaze towards the camera captures our attention, drawing us into her world. Legros skillfully portrays Marie's innocence and beauty through his realistic approach to portraiture. As we admire this artwork, we are transported back to Victorian Britain, where it was created. The concept of capturing a single individual's essence within a frame was highly valued during this artistic movement. Little Marie becomes an embodiment of that era's fascination with preserving moments frozen in time. Legros' creation not only showcases his technical prowess but also serves as a testament to France's rich artistic heritage. Through this print, he immortalizes both the subject and himself as an accomplished British-French artist. This print invites us to appreciate the beauty found within simplicity and reminds us of the power art holds in transcending time and borders. It is truly a treasure housed within the walls of the National Gallery of Art for all art enthusiasts to behold.
