EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating portrait captured by Auguste Lepere in the late 19th century. This exquisite colour woodcut from four blocks showcases the artist's mastery of his craft and his ability to evoke emotion through his work. In this piece, we see Mme Lepere, the wife of the artist himself, depicted as she recovers from an illness. The setting sun in the background adds a touch of melancholy to the scene while also symbolizing hope and renewal. The coastal location further enhances the sense of tranquility and serenity that surrounds her. Lepere's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this print. From Mme Lepere's delicate features to her flowing gown, each element has been meticulously crafted with precision and care. The use of vibrant colours brings life to the composition, creating a harmonious balance between light and shadow. This artwork not only portrays a moment in time but also reflects on themes such as marriage, femininity, and science. It invites us into Mme Lepere's world as she contemplates her place within society while simultaneously contemplating celestial bodies like planets within our solar system. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this print stands as a testament to Auguste Lepere's artistic prowess and serves as an enduring reminder of love, resilience, and beauty amidst adversity.
