EDITORS COMMENTS
Vue de la Foire de Besançon" (View of the Fair of Besançon), an exquisite etching by Gabriel de Saint-Aubin (1684-1772) from the 18th century, offers a captivating glimpse into the lively and bustling atmosphere of a French fair. The image, now housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., transports us back in time to an era of horse-drawn vehicles, colorful tents, and the joyous sounds of laughter and excitement. Saint-Aubin, a renowned French artist, masterfully captures the energy and vibrancy of the scene. In the foreground, we see a horse and carriage, its driver poised and ready to navigate the crowded fairgrounds. Horses of all shapes and sizes graze nearby, their riders engaged in animated conversation or haggling with vendors. The fairgoers, dressed in the fashion of the day, mill about, some admiring the wares on display, others enjoying the various entertainments. The fairgrounds are filled with a myriad of tents, each one showcasing a different merchant or artisan. The air is thick with the aroma of roasting meats, freshly baked pastries, and the sweet scent of flowers. The scene is one of pure delight, a testament to the enduring appeal of the fair and the simple joys of country life in the eighteenth century. This monochrome masterpiece is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document, offering a unique perspective into the past. It invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of a time long gone, and to appreciate the rich heritage of French art and culture.
