EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Soap Bubbles, 1799" by Jean-Jacques de Boissieu takes us back to the enchanting world of childhood innocence. The image portrays a young boy engrossed in the simple pleasure of blowing soap bubbles, his face filled with joy and wonder. Set against a rustic country backdrop, this scene captures a timeless moment of playfulness and imagination. Created using etching drypoint burin and roulette techniques, this exquisite piece showcases Boissieu's mastery as an artist. The intricate details in the engraving bring out the texture of each bubble, while the use of light and shadow adds depth to the composition. This fourth state print is part of a series that evolved over time, revealing Boissieu's dedication to perfecting his craft. Housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this artwork stands as a testament to both French heritage and artistic excellence. It serves as a reminder that amidst our fast-paced modern lives, there is beauty in simplicity – finding delight in small moments like blowing bubbles. As we gaze upon this portrait from centuries past, we are transported into a world where worries fade away and pure happiness reigns supreme. It reminds us to cherish our own inner childlike spirit and embrace life's little joys with open arms.
