EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white lithograph titled "Man, Woman and Child Crossing a Stream" created by Hippolyte Bellangé in 1829, we are transported to the serene countryside of 19th century France. The scene depicts a father, mother, and their young daughter bravely navigating their way across a gentle stream. The lithotint technique used by Bellangé adds depth and texture to the print, enhancing the sense of realism. The artist's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of each family member - from the determined expression on the father's face as he carries his daughter on his back, to the protective stance of the mother guiding them through. This artwork beautifully captures both familial love and the resilience required to navigate life's challenges. It serves as a timeless reminder that no matter how daunting our journey may seem, with loved ones by our side we can overcome any obstacle. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this piece showcases Bellangé's mastery in capturing rural scenes with an exquisite touch. As we gaze upon this lithograph today, it not only offers us a glimpse into French heritage art but also evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times when nature was our playground and family bonds were cherished above all else.
