EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Couples 5 to 7,1880" takes us back to the enchanting world of the late nineteenth century. The image is an engraving by Lorentz Froelich, skillfully brought to life by Charles Emile Matthis and Charles Firmin Gillot. It measures 27.5 x 18.5 cm and belongs to a private collection. The artwork originates from a publication called "Songs and rounds from childhood" published by Pierre-Jules Hetzel in Paris around 1880. This particular piece, Couplets 5 to 7, is part of the Hetzel Collection housed in the Library of Mademoiselle Lili and her cousin Lucien. The scene depicted showcases characters reminiscent of Harlequin from Commedia dell'arte, an Italian comedic tradition that flourished during this era. The costumes worn by these couples evoke a sense of playfulness and whimsy. Music plays a significant role in this artwork as well; it portrays singers engaged in serenading with ballads and canticles. The illustration captures the joyous spirit of song, transporting us into a world filled with melody. Through its intricate details and nostalgic charm, this print transports viewers back to their own childhoods while offering glimpses into French culture at that time. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a window into history—a testament to the enduring power of art across centuries.
