EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Village of Andelys - Chateau Gaillard, Coeur de Lion, 1856" transports us back to the 12th century in France. The creator of this remarkable piece is none other than Alfred Capel-Cure, a renowned photographer from the 19th century. The image showcases the majestic Chateau Gaillard standing proudly atop a hill in the village of Andelys. This medieval castle was built by Richard the Lionheart (Coeur de Lion) and serves as a testament to his architectural prowess. Its fortifications exude strength and grandeur against the dramatic backdrop of Eure Haute-Normandie's rolling hills. Alfred Capel-Cure masterfully captures not only the physical beauty but also evokes a sense of history and heritage through his lens. The monochrome palette adds an air of timelessness to this stunning photograph. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported into an era long gone yet preserved within these walls. The river Seine gracefully meanders through the landscape, adding tranquility to this picturesque scene. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this photograph allows us to appreciate both Capel-Cure's artistic vision and our shared human history. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, architecture can still inspire awe and admiration.
