EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "La Place des Martyrs et la Taverne du Bagne 1885" by Felix Hilaire Buhot takes us back to the streets of France in the late 19th century. The artist's masterful use of various techniques such as etching, aquatint, roulette, drypoint, and burnishing brings this scene to life with remarkable detail. The image showcases a bustling square known as La Place des Martyrs, where people from all walks of life gather. The architecture surrounding the square reflects the charm and elegance of that era. In particular, our attention is drawn to a prominent establishment called "La Taverne du Bagne" which stands proudly amidst the vibrant atmosphere. Buhot's keen eye for capturing human interactions is evident in this piece. We see individuals engaged in animated conversations while others leisurely stroll through the square. The artist skillfully conveys a sense of movement and liveliness through his intricate linework. As we immerse ourselves in this snapshot from history, we are transported to an era long gone but preserved forever within this artwork. It serves as a reminder of how places evolve over time while still retaining their unique character. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate Buhot's artistic genius and invites us to explore the rich tapestry of French culture during that period.
