EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the heart of Quito, Ecuador in the 19th century. The image showcases a bustling square adorned with an exquisite fountain, situated near the majestic cathedral. The French School's engraving beautifully captures the essence of this vibrant city. The composition exudes a sense of grandeur and elegance, as people go about their daily activities against the backdrop of architectural marvels. The intricate details meticulously etched by the artist bring every element to life - from the ornate design of the fountain to the delicate features of the cathedral. As we gaze at this remarkable piece, we can almost hear the gentle trickle of water from the fountain and feel a cool breeze wafting through our hair. It is as if time has stood still for a moment, allowing us to immerse ourselves in this enchanting scene. This particular print was featured in Le Tour Du Monde (Hachette, 1867), adding historical significance to its artistic value. Thanks to digital restoration techniques employed on this image, it appears crisp and clear despite its age. Bridgeman Images presents us with yet another gem from their extensive collection - an evocative glimpse into Ecuador's rich cultural heritage. This photograph serves as a reminder that art has an incredible power to transport us across time and space, connecting us with distant places and capturing moments that would otherwise be lost forever.
