EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a breathtaking panoramic view of the River Seine in 18th-century Paris. Titled "The Louvre, the Pont Neuf and the College des Quatre Nations" this oil on canvas masterpiece by Nicolas Raguenet transports us back to a time when French architecture flourished. In this scene, we are greeted with an enchanting sight: the iconic Louvre Museum standing proudly alongside the majestic Pont Neuf bridge. The grandeur of these landmarks is further enhanced by their reflection on the tranquil waters of the Seine. As our gaze wanders, we can also spot barges gracefully gliding along the river and Notre Dame Cathedral looming in the distance. Notably, nestled between these architectural marvels is the College des Quatre Nations. Originally founded by Cardinal Mazarin as part of the University of Paris, it later became home to Institut de France after 1805. This institution's rich history adds another layer of significance to this already mesmerizing composition. Through Raguenet's skilled brushstrokes and attention to detail, we are transported into a vibrant cityscape that captures both beauty and historical importance. This print serves as a testament to Paris' enduring allure throughout centuries and reminds us why it continues to be celebrated as one of Europe's most beloved cultural capitals.
