EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Incendie de la cathedrale Saint-Andre de Bordeaux, le 25 aout 1787" transports us back to a fateful day in history. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this print captures the devastating fire that engulfed the majestic Cathedral of Saint-Andre in Bordeaux on August 25th, 1787. The scene depicted is both awe-inspiring and tragic. The flames dance ominously against the night sky as they consume the grandeur of this architectural masterpiece. The artist's attention to detail allows us to witness every intricate element of destruction; from crumbling walls to billowing smoke that engulfs surrounding structures. Originally featured as an illustration for Le Magasin Pittoresque in 1880, this digitally cleaned image brings new life to an important historical event. It serves as a reminder of how even our most cherished symbols can be vulnerable to unforeseen disasters.
