EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Rouen (colour litho)" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in the charm and history of this famous European city. The image showcases a card from the game called The Kingdoms Of Europe by John Jaques, capturing Rouen's essence with its burnt orange hues and intricate details. The focal point of the print is undoubtedly Rouen Cathedral, an architectural masterpiece that dominates the skyline. Its Gothic spires reach towards the heavens, evoking a sense of grandeur and spirituality. Surrounding it are other edifices that contribute to Rouen's unique character as a French city. One cannot help but be reminded of Joan of Arc when looking at this print. It was in Rouen where she faced her trial and ultimately met her tragic fate in 1431. Her presence lingers in these streets, adding another layer of historical significance to this already enchanting place. The Victorian-era aesthetic is evident through the cotton-like clouds floating above, giving a dreamlike quality to the scene. This late 19th-century artwork captures both nostalgia for simpler times and admiration for European culture. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are transported back in time to experience Rouen's beauty firsthand. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, cities like Rouen continue to captivate our imaginations with their rich history and timeless allure.
