EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Allegory Marie Antoinette 1776 Etching Sheet" by Augustin de Saint-Aubin, a renowned French artist from Paris. Created in 1776, this etching sheet measures approximately 11 5/16 inches by 8 7/8 inches (288 cm x 211 cm). The artwork depicts an allegorical scene with Marie Antoinette at its center. The young queen is seated and holds a child while being surrounded by various symbolic figures. Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom and warfare, stands beside her as a representation of strength and intellect. Surrounding them are the Seven Virtues, each personified by different characters embodying qualities such as faith, hope, charity, prudence, justice, temperance, and fortitude. These virtues serve as guiding principles for Marie Antoinette's reign. Floating above them are the Three Graces who symbolize beauty and charm. They gracefully hold up clouds that carry a crown above Marie Antoinette's head signifying her royal status. This print captures every intricate detail of this historical masterpiece with precision and clarity. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate the skillful craftsmanship of both Augustin de Saint-Aubin and Charles Nicolas Cochin II – whose original work inspired this etching. A remarkable blend of artistry and symbolism make this piece an exceptional addition to any art collection or display space.
