EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of "La Vie de Mon Pere" an engraving from 1788 by the French School in the 18th century. Housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this artwork holds historical significance and tells a compelling story. The engraving is based on a biographical novel written by Restif de La Bretonne, titled "The Life of My Father". First published in 1779, this two-part novel delves into the life and fortunes of a humble Burgundian peasant. It offers readers a glimpse into pre-revolutionary France during the Ancien Régime era. With its intricate details and nostalgic charm, this image transports viewers back to eighteenth-century rural France. The honest portrayal of peasant life resonates with audiences as it captures both their struggles and triumphs within society. Nicolas Edme Restif's work not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also stands as a testament to his ability to capture human experiences through literature. This print allows us to appreciate his talent while immersing ourselves in the world he created. As we gaze upon this enchanting piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of our shared history and how art has always been instrumental in preserving our past for future generations.
