EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration by French artist Lucien Metivet, originally published in Le Rire on June 21,1913. Titled "From the top of the sky, his final resting place" this engraving depicts a scene filled with artistic symbolism and profound meaning. In this artwork, Metivet masterfully combines elements of commerce, wealth, and artistry. A heavenly cloud serves as the backdrop for an angelic figure bidding farewell to a departing soul. The presence of Rembrandt van Ryn's name further adds depth to the composition, highlighting the connection between past masters and contemporary artists. The image evokes a sense of mystery and contemplation about life's transience and our ultimate destination. Through skillful use of line work and shading techniques, Metivet creates a visually striking piece that invites viewers to reflect on their own mortality. As we gaze upon this remarkable engraving captured beautifully in this photograph by eCaricadoc from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported into a world where art transcends time and space. It reminds us that even in death, there is beauty to be found - perhaps even salvation through artistic expression. This rare glimpse into French art history offers us not only aesthetic pleasure but also prompts introspection about our existence as mortal beings navigating through the realms of creativity and spirituality.
