EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ball: Summer bastringue, n. d. late 18th century" takes us back to the vibrant and elegant world of French leisure in the late 18th century. The artist behind this masterpiece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the scene captured. The image showcases a lively ballroom filled with elegantly dressed men and women gracefully dancing together. The engraving beautifully captures the intricate details of their attire, reflecting the fashion trends of that era. It is evident that this gathering was a significant social event where people from different walks of life came together to enjoy music, dance, and each other's company. The photograph itself is a testament to Leonard de Selva's skill in capturing historical moments through his lens. With impeccable clarity and composition, he transports us back in time to witness this enchanting spectacle firsthand. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this artwork also provides valuable insights into French society during the late 18th century. It serves as a window into an era marked by political upheaval and societal transformation - just before the French Revolution took place. As we admire this remarkable piece from a private collection, it reminds us of how art can transcend time and allow us glimpses into different cultures and periods throughout history.
