EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the iconic statue of Pierre Corneille, located on the Pont de Pierre in Rouen. The image was taken between 1865 and 1870 by Le Comte, a French photographer who was active in Rouen during the 1860s. The statue itself stands tall and proud, overlooking the picturesque bridge that spans across the Seine River. It is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this charming city in France. The albumen silver print technique used to create this image adds depth and texture to every detail captured. The monochromatic tones enhance the timeless beauty of both the statue and its surroundings. Pierre Corneille, one of France's most celebrated playwrights from the 17th century, is immortalized here in stone. His contribution to French literature is honored through this magnificent sculpture that serves as a reminder of his enduring legacy. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era when artistry flourished amidst architectural marvels like Pont de Pierre. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate not only Le Comte's skillful photography but also invites us to reflect on history, culture, and artistic expression.
