EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the serene beauty of the Maternite Port-Royal, a maternity home located in Paris, France. Taken in 1905 by Herminie Waterneau, this print showcases the remarkable architecture and peaceful ambiance of the building's cloister. The Maternite Port-Royal was formerly known as the Abbey of Port-Royal des Champs and is situated on boulevard de Port Royal, near rue du Faubourg Saint-Jacques. The image transports us back to a time when this historic site served as a place of refuge for expectant mothers seeking medical care and support. The hospital's exterior exudes an air of tranquility with its well-manicured gardens that surround it. It is evident that French architectural finesse played a significant role in designing this magnificent structure. Waterneau's skillful use of watercolor on paper brings out subtle details within the photograph, enhancing its overall charm. This timeless piece has been preserved by Musee de la Ville de Paris at Musee Carnavalet. As we admire this print today, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also of the vital role institutions like these have played throughout history in providing care for those in need.
