EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless elegance of the "Bust of Francois de Crequy, c. 1690". Created by renowned sculptor Antoine Coysevox in collaboration with Nicolas Coustou and Jean Joly, this marble masterpiece resides in the Eglise Saint-Roch in Paris, France. The subject of this bust is none other than Francois de Crequy, a French marshal celebrated for his military prowess. With his curly hair cascading down to his shoulders and a neatly trimmed moustache adorning his upper lip, he exudes an air of authority and command. Dressed in intricately detailed armor that showcases both strength and sophistication, Crequy's portrait reveals a man who was not only a leader on the battlefield but also possessed refined taste. The delicate lace collar around his neck adds a touch of elegance to his attire while emphasizing his status as a prominent figure within society. Every curl meticulously carved into the marble serves as a testament to Coysevox's exceptional skill as an artist. The attention to detail is remarkable - from each individual strand of hair to the folds in Crequy's clothing - making it difficult to believe that this work was created over three centuries ago. Displayed against a simple backdrop within a studio setting, this photograph by Giraudon from 1920 perfectly captures every nuance and texture present in the original sculpture. It allows viewers today to appreciate not only the artistry behind this piece but also its historical significance as an
