EDITORS COMMENTS
La Matinee (L heureuse Union), after 1789, captures a tender moment in the 18th century French society. In this black and white etching by Louis Bosse, we witness an intimate scene between two lovers seated by the fireplace. The man is comfortably positioned on an armchair while his female companion sits on his lap, their bodies entwined in a loving embrace. The setting exudes elegance with its meticulously detailed furniture, including a beautiful fire screen and mantelpiece adorned with decorative elements. The woman's long hair cascades down her back as she gazes affectionately at her partner, dressed in fashionable attire of the time. Bosse skillfully portrays the concept of love and intimacy through this print. The expressions on their faces reflect contentment and joy, capturing a moment frozen in time. Their connection transcends societal norms as they find solace and happiness within each other's arms. This artwork showcases Bosse's mastery of etching techniques, highlighting his attention to detail and ability to capture emotions through fine lines. It is now part of the esteemed collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. 'La Matinee (L heureuse Union)' invites us to contemplate love's timeless power that knows no boundaries or limitations – reminding us that true connection can be found even amidst historical turmoil.
