EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the enchanting city of Nimes in 1888. The image showcases the magnificent Magne Tower, standing tall and proud against the backdrop of the Fontaine Garden. Engraved by Joseph Pennell, this print beautifully captures the essence of Nimes during a time when it was undergoing significant transformations. The Magne Tower, an architectural marvel dating back to between 1745 and 1755, dominates the scene with its grandeur and historical significance. As we gaze upon it from the Fontaine Garden, we are transported to a place where history meets nature in perfect harmony. The garden itself is a testament to France's rich heritage as it holds the distinction of being the first public garden in French history. Built during "Le Siecle des Lumieres" or Age of Enlightenment, this serene space embodies all that was celebrated during that era. In this engraving by Patrice Cartier, every intricate detail comes alive - from the ornate door leading into the garden to each leaf on every tree. It evokes a sense of nostalgia for a time long gone but not forgotten. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry by Gusman Photography©, let us immerse ourselves in its beauty and appreciate how it encapsulates both history and natural splendor within one frame.
