EDITORS COMMENTS
In this late 19th-century print titled "Pierrot smells a fruit" we are transported to a whimsical world of mystery and intrigue. The unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of Pierrot, a beloved character from traditional pantomime performances. Dressed in his iconic white costume with loose-fitting clothes and a pointed hat, Pierrot stands before us with an air of curiosity. His delicate features are accentuated by the soft lighting that bathes the scene, lending an ethereal quality to the image. With one hand delicately holding a piece of fruit up to his nose, he appears captivated by its intoxicating scent. The composition is both playful and enigmatic, leaving us wondering about the significance behind this seemingly simple act. Is it merely an innocent moment of indulgence or does it hold deeper symbolic meaning? Perhaps Pierrot's exploration of this fruit represents his quest for knowledge or desire for forbidden pleasures. Regardless of interpretation, there is no denying the beauty and allure emanating from this exquisite artwork. Preserved within the archives of Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, Leonard de Selva expertly captures every intricate detail through his masterful photography. As we gaze upon "Pierrot smells a fruit" we are reminded that art has the power to transport us into different worlds and evoke emotions beyond words - even when faced with something as simple as smelling a piece of fruit.
