EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases one of the oldest surviving seals of the City of Paris, dating back to approximately 1210. Crafted from wax by a French School artist in the 13th century, this remarkable artifact is now housed at the Centre Historique des Archives Nationales in Paris, France. The seal depicts a majestic ship or longship sailing across turbulent waters. The intricate relief work on the seal brings to life every detail of this ancient vessel, from its towering mast to its sturdy hull. An inscription adorns the seal, adding an air of mystery and intrigue. Symbolizing more than just a mere stamp or mark, this historic artifact represents the identity and heritage of Paris itself. It serves as a tangible link to centuries past and offers us a glimpse into medieval times when ships like these were essential for trade and exploration. As we marvel at this extraordinary piece of history captured through Bridgeman Images' lens, let us appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its significance in preserving our collective memory. This photograph reminds us that even after hundreds of years, certain treasures endure as testaments to human ingenuity and resilience.
