EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the 19th century takes us back in time to a swimming school in Paris. The artist, Jean Henri Marlet, beautifully captures the essence of this bustling city with his brushstrokes. In this particular painting titled "Swimming School - in 'Paintings of Paris'", Marlet showcases the leisurely activity of swimming that was enjoyed by both locals and visitors alike. The image depicts a group of individuals donning swimsuits as they gather around a pool, eager to learn or improve their swimming skills. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and anticipation, as each person prepares for their turn to dive into the water. The composition exudes a sense of unity and camaraderie among these swimmers who have come together to embrace this popular pastime. Marlet's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, capturing not only the physicality of human figures but also the architectural beauty surrounding them. This engraving transports us back to an era where French culture thrived on casual yet refined activities such as swimming. Leonard de Selva has expertly photographed this timeless piece from a private collection, preserving its historical significance for generations to come. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and bring history alive before our very eyes.
