EDITORS COMMENTS
Study Geometry Sorbonne 1886-87 captures the essence of intellectual pursuit and artistic mastery. This fabric print, rendered in a deep black crayon, showcases the meticulous attention to detail by Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, a renowned French artist from Lyons. The focal point of this artwork is a youthful and pensive figure standing amidst squared blue lines that symbolize the study of geometry. The drawing stands as a part of an allegory, reflecting Puvis' great mural masterpieces painted between 1887 and 1889 for the newly rebuilt lecture hall at Sorbonne University in Paris. Measuring at 10 x 6 7/8 inches (254 x 175 cm), this piece exemplifies Puvis' skillful technique and his ability to convey emotion through simple yet powerful imagery. The use of fabricated black crayon adds depth and texture to the composition, enhancing its visual impact. As we gaze upon this print from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection, we are transported back to late nineteenth-century France - a time when education was highly valued and art served as both an expression of beauty and an instrument for intellectual enlightenment. This artwork serves as a reminder of the enduring power of knowledge and creativity, inspiring us to embrace our own journey towards understanding.
