EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a study for a remarkable painting titled "St. Louis" by Luc-Oliver Merson, created in 1883. The original oil on panel masterpiece measures 36x23 cm and is housed in the prestigious Musee d'Orsay in Paris, France. The image captures an intriguing scene depicting Saint Louis between the Church and St. Thomas Aquin. The medieval ambiance is palpable as we witness the saintly figure adorned with a crown of thorns, symbolizing his martyrdom and devout faith. As the founder of Ste-Chapelle, King Louis IX holds immense significance as both a crusader and patron saint of Paris. Enthroned on an exquisite throne reminiscent of the 13th century, Saint Louis exudes regality while surrounded by angelic beings that lend an ethereal touch to this magnificent artwork. This composition beautifully portrays Merson's mastery in capturing religious themes with great attention to detail. With its historical context deeply rooted in French culture, this painting serves as a testament to Merson's artistic prowess during the late 19th century. Bridgeman Images has impeccably reproduced this iconic piece through their high-quality photo print, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its beauty. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing photograph, we are transported back in time to witness the splendor and devotion encapsulated within Merson's "St. Louis. "
