EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting print, entitled "Joseph Vernet and His Family at a Picnic Near Marseille," dates back to 1753 and transports us to a idyllic moment in time. The scene unfolds in the picturesque landscape of Marseille, with the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea shimmering in the background. At the forefront, we find renowned French painter Joseph Vernet (1714-1789) and his beloved family, engaged in an afternoon of leisure and relaxation. The family members, dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, are spread out on a lush, green blanket, enjoying a delightful picnic. The father, Joseph, sits calmly with a book in hand, while his wife, dressed in a flowing, elegant gown, prepares a delectable morsel for their young daughter. The children, full of curiosity and joy, playfully explore their surroundings, their laughter adding to the jovial atmosphere. A table laden with an array of mouthwatering dishes and refreshing beverages sits nearby, a testament to the bountiful harvest of the land and the sea. A roasted pig, a loaf of fresh bread, ripe fruits, and an assortment of savory dishes are all on display, inviting us to indulge in the simple pleasures of life. The sun casts a warm, golden glow over the scene, bathing the family in a gentle light that seems to capture the very essence of happiness and contentment. This print, with its charming depiction of family, food, and nature, serves as a reminder of the timeless joy and beauty of a simple picnic in the company of loved ones.
