EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Chartres Cathedral, a true masterpiece of 19th-century architecture. Created by Em. Pec in 1850-52, this image transports us back to a time when craftsmanship and artistry were at their peak. The Chartres Cathedral, located in Eure-et-Loir, Centre France, stands as an iconic symbol of Christianity and French heritage. Its intricate carvings and sculptures adorn every corner of its exterior, capturing the essence of medieval art. In this particular shot, the focus is on one of the cathedral's grand doorways. The meticulously carved stone statues that flank it exude an air of religious devotion and reverence. Each detail has been captured with precision by Em. Pec's lens - from the delicate folds in the robes to the serene expressions on their faces. The salted paper print technique used here adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its timeless quality. It allows us to appreciate not only the architectural marvel but also Emile Pec's skillful photography. As we gaze upon this photograph from The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and transport us into different eras. It serves as a testament to human creativity and our enduring fascination with religious symbolism. Embrace history through this remarkable piece by Emile Pec – a window into both past architectural brilliance and photographic mastery
