EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting region of Provence in the 1930s. The artist, PLM, beautifully captures the essence of Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, a place where Petrarch sought solace in 1337. Here, the mighty Sorgue river bursts forth from a colossal basin nestled within a hillside and gracefully caresses the foot of a rugged wall adorned with remnants of the Chateau. The scene is an exquisite blend of natural beauty and architectural marvels. As we gaze upon this vista, our eyes are drawn to the picturesque rooftops scattered across the landscape, reminding us that human history has intertwined itself with nature's grandeur for centuries. The ruins stand as silent witnesses to bygone eras and evoke a sense of mystery and wonder. They speak volumes about time's relentless passage and remind us that even once-majestic structures can succumb to its unyielding force. From an elevated view point, we witness how mountainside meets countryside in perfect harmony. This aerial perspective allows us to appreciate both the vastness of nature and man's humble presence within it. As we delve into this remarkable image from Geographical Magazine Volume 5, published by The Print Collector29 on behalf of The Royal Geographical Society, we are transported not only through space but also through time. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with landscapes that have captivated hearts throughout history - provoking awe then as they do now.
