EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Burial Place of Turenne" an illustration from Versailles, Paris and Saint Denis, published in 1809. The aquatint artwork was created by John Claude Nattes (c. 1765-1822) and is now part of a private collection. In this image, we see tourists gathered before the tomb of Henri de La Tour d'Auvergne, Vicomte de Turenne (1611-1675), a renowned French military leader during the Thirty Years War. The burial site is located in the crypt of the church of Saint-Denis, known for its historical significance as a resting place for many French monarchs. The composition beautifully captures the grandeur and solemnity of this sacred space. The vaulted ceilings and intricate basilica architecture create an awe-inspiring atmosphere that adds to the reverence surrounding Turenne's final resting place. Visitors are seen paying their respects to this esteemed marshal of France, reflecting on his significant contributions to history. This scene serves as a reminder not only of Turenne's legacy but also highlights how tourism brings people from all walks of life together to appreciate cultural heritage. Through this evocative print, viewers can immerse themselves in both artistry and history alike. It invites us to contemplate the lasting impact individuals like Turenne have had on our world while appreciating the beauty found within these hallowed walls at Basilique de St Denis.
