EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing moment in time. In the engraving titled "What effect, great god, produced on this skeptic audience this rustic music" spectators are seen engrossed in the enchanting melody of a drum player. The scene is taken from Alphonse Daudet's autobiographical collection "Trento ans de Paris" and beautifully illustrated by Montegut for "Le Monde illustrious" in 1886. The image transports us to a leisurely afternoon in Paris, where skepticism gives way to pure fascination as the rustic music fills the air. The expressions on the faces of these French spectators tell stories of their own – some captivated with wide-eyed wonder, others lost deep within their thoughts. Daudet's literary prowess shines through as he vividly describes the profound impact that this humble performance has on his skeptical audience. Through this engraving, we can almost hear the rhythmic beats of the drum reverberating through our souls and feel ourselves being transported into another world. This remarkable piece is part of a private collection and serves as a testament to both Daudet's literary genius and Montegut's artistic talent. It reminds us that art has an incredible power to transcend boundaries, touch hearts, and evoke emotions even among those who may initially doubt its influence.
