EDITORS COMMENTS
In this etching from 1856, Eugene Blery transports us to the picturesque landscape of Gresy near Aix-les-Bains. The focal point of the print is a charming mill nestled amidst lush greenery, with its waterwheel gracefully turning in harmony with the cascading waterfall nearby. Blery's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his etching needle, as he masterfully captures the play of light and shadow on the mill's rustic facade. The surrounding nature comes alive through delicate lines and intricate cross-hatching techniques, showcasing Blery's skill as an artist. The tranquil ambiance of this scene is further enhanced by the use of chine colle technique, where thin pieces of colored paper are carefully adhered to create subtle tonal variations. This adds depth and texture to the print, making it even more visually captivating. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can almost hear the soothing sound of rushing water and feel a gentle breeze rustling through leaves. It serves as a timeless reminder that beauty can be found in even the simplest moments of everyday life. Eugene Blery's "Mill Waterfall Gresy Aix-les-Bains 1856" invites us to immerse ourselves in nature's serenity and appreciate its quiet wonders.
