EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Precautions" transports us back to 18th-century Paris, offering a glimpse into the lives of the aristocracy during the reign of Louis XVI. Engraved by Pietro Antonio Martini in 1777, this exquisite piece showcases the talent and attention to detail that characterized his work. The image depicts a male and female couple standing outdoors on a cobbled street, surrounded by an elegant cityscape. The man is dressed in a fashionable uniform while the woman, visibly pregnant, wears an elaborate costume befitting her social status. They are accompanied by several servants who assist them with care and support. In this scene of domesticity and refinement, we witness the importance placed on pregnancy and childbirth within French society at that time. The couple's cautious demeanor suggests their awareness of potential risks associated with pregnancy during this era. The composition exudes elegance as it captures not only fashion trends but also architectural elements such as domes and sedan chairs commonly seen in Parisian streets during this period. Adolphe Giraudon's late 19th-century photograph beautifully preserves Moreau le Jeune's original engraving for future generations to appreciate. This historical artwork offers us a window into both artistic mastery and societal values from centuries past.
