EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite engraving titled "It's a boy" by Pierre Charles Baquoy, created in 1776. The intricate details of this piece are brought to life through the masterful work of Jean Michel Moreau the Younger, who beautifully reproduced it. The photograph showcases this historical artwork housed in Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet. The scene depicted in the engraving is set within an elegant interior space, possibly a cabinet or study. A male figure, presumably the father, sits with excitement while a female servant stands nearby. In their midst is a midwife holding a newborn baby boy, announcing his arrival with joyous words: "C'est un fils, Monsieur!". The room is adorned with various elements of aristocratic life including furniture, gowns, inkpots and quills. Every detail has been meticulously captured in this photograph from Adolphe Giraudon's collection dating back to the late 19th century. It offers us a glimpse into an era when such announcements were celebrated with great pomp and ceremony. This image not only celebrates new life but also highlights the artistic skill of both Baquoy and Moreau as they bring together various elements like sculpture and paintings to create a visually stunning composition. It serves as a reminder that art can transcend time and continue to captivate viewers even centuries later.
