EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a close view of the tympanum of Bourges Cathedral, beautifully captured by Pierre-Emile-Joseph Pecarrere. The French photographer's skill is evident in this stunning piece, which showcases the intricate details and grandeur of the cathedral's architectural masterpiece. Bourges Cathedral, located in Bourges, France, stands as a testament to Gothic architecture and has been an iconic landmark since its completion in 1851. Pecarrere expertly captures the essence of this magnificent structure through his salted paper print from a waxed paper negative. The close-up perspective allows viewers to appreciate every delicate carving and ornate design that adorns the tympanum. From religious figures to mythical creatures, each element tells a story and adds depth to this remarkable artwork. Measuring at 21.1 x 15.9 cm (8 5/16 x 6 1/4 inches), this photograph invites us into a world where time seems frozen within these stone walls. It transports us back to the mid-19th century when Pecarrere immortalized this moment with his camera. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of both the artistic talent behind it and our own connection to history. This photograph serves as a visual reminder of humanity's ability to create awe-inspiring structures that withstand the test of time.
