EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Hotel des Invalides, a historic landmark in Paris. Created by Victor Jean Nicolle, this ink and watercolor masterpiece captures the grandeur of the building with remarkable detail. The view presented here is from the north entrance, near the iconic Lion de Saint-Marc fountain. The artist skillfully portrays the architectural brilliance of this neo-classical structure, which was founded by Louis XIV in 1671 as a hospital for war veterans. Restored under Napoleon I's reign, Hotel des Invalides stands as a testament to French architecture and history. Its design, attributed to Jules Hardouin Mansart and Liberal Bruant, exudes elegance and sophistication. Nicolle's artwork beautifully captures both the scale and intricate details of this renowned landmark. The delicate strokes of ink combined with vibrant watercolors bring life to every aspect of his composition. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an era where artistry met functionality. It serves as a reminder not only of France's rich cultural heritage but also pays homage to those who served their country within these walls. This stunning piece from Musee National du Chateau de Malmaison is a true treasure that allows us to appreciate both artistic talent and historical significance.
