EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and elegance of the Staircase leading to the Chapel at Versailles. The image, an illustration from Versailles by John Claude Nattes, takes us back in time to 1806 when this aquatint was published. The staircase is a magnificent architectural marvel, adorned with intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship. Its sweeping steps seem to ascend towards heaven, creating a sense of awe and reverence. As we gaze upon it, we can almost imagine the soft echoes of footsteps echoing through its halls. A French couple stands at the entrance of the staircase, their figures adding a touch of life and scale to this majestic scene. They are dwarfed by the towering archway above them, emphasizing both their insignificance in comparison to this regal setting and also their connection as part of a larger family within Versailles. Versailles itself needs no introduction - synonymous with opulence and luxury, it remains an enduring symbol of France's rich history. This print transports us directly into that world; we can almost feel ourselves stepping onto those very steps as if we were present during its heyday. Preserved in a private collection belonging to The Stapleton Collection, this image allows us access into one of history's most iconic landmarks. It serves as a reminder not only of France's cultural heritage but also our own fascination with beauty that transcends time.
