EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Winter" by Jean Audran takes us back to a time of old, where the 17th and 18th centuries come alive. The scene depicts a dramatic moment amidst bad weather, as people are seen fleeing from flooding caused by a cataract in France. The engraving showcases Audran's exceptional talent in capturing natural phenomena with great detail. Storm clouds loom ominously overhead, casting an eerie light on the chaotic scene below. Men and women scramble for safety, desperately trying to escape the rising waters that threaten their lives. In this historical artwork, Audran draws inspiration from Nicholas Poussin's Book of Genesis paintings. A serpent slithers through the water, symbolizing both danger and temptation. It serves as a reminder of humanity's fallibility and our constant struggle against nature's forces. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly displays this heritage piece as part of its collection, preserving the rich history it represents. Through Audran's masterful technique and attention to detail, we are transported back in time to witness this harrowing event unfold before our eyes. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we can't help but marvel at how art has the power to capture not only beauty but also moments of turmoil and resilience throughout history.
