EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century print, titled "View of the Hôtel des Fermes Générales du Tabac" by Jean-Michel Moreau, showcases an exterior scene of a grand French building from the Rococo era. Moreau, also known as Jean-Michel Moreau le Jeune or Jean-Michel Moreau II, meticulously captured the intricate details of the Hôtel des Fermes Générales du Tabac using pen and black ink with brown wash and watercolor over graphite on two sheets of laid paper. Located in France, the Hôtel des Fermes Générales du Tabac was a significant building during the 18th century, and this print offers a fascinating glimpse into its historic past. The building's name translates to "Hotel of the General Farms of Tobacco," indicating its connection to the tobacco trade during this period. The print depicts the hotel's impressive facade, with its ornate lettering and intricate architectural details. The black and brown color palette adds depth and contrast, while the use of pen and ink drawing and wash techniques brings the scene to life. The rococo era, characterized by its ornate and decorative style, is beautifully represented in this print. This artwork is a valuable addition to any art center or gallery, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of France during the 18th century. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is fortunate to have this print in its collection, allowing visitors to appreciate the intricacies of Moreau's work and the history of the Hôtel des Fermes Générales du Tabac.
