EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the "big ditches" at the gate of St Malo in Dinan, beautifully portrayed by F. Gombeaux in the late 19th century. The image transports us back in time to an era when fortifications played a crucial role in protecting cities and their inhabitants. The composition showcases the intricate details of these impressive fortifications, highlighting their strategic design and architectural grandeur. The strong stone walls rise majestically from the ground, creating a formidable barrier against potential threats. One can almost imagine soldiers patrolling along these ramparts, diligently safeguarding this historic gateway. The photograph's monochrome tones add depth and texture to Gombeaux's work, emphasizing both light and shadow within each crevice and corner. This artistic choice brings forth a sense of nostalgia while allowing viewers to appreciate every intricacy captured by Gombeaux's lens. Displayed at the Dinan Museum in France, this artwork serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic prowess. It encapsulates not only the beauty of Brittany but also pays homage to its rich cultural heritage. Leonard de Selva expertly preserves this masterpiece through his copyright protection, ensuring that future generations can continue to marvel at its splendor for years to come.
