Summary

[edit]
Description
Français : Auguste-Xavier LEPRINCE (Paris, 1799 - Nice, 1826)

Pèlerins demandant l'aumône

Plume et encre brune, lavis brun

Signé et daté ' a x / Leprince. 1825.' en bas à gauche

17,70 x 13,50 cm.


Oeuvre incluse dans l'album rassemblé pour la vente de charité organisée en faveur des habitants de la ville de Salins-les-Bains, détruite par les flammes le 27 juillet 1825, tenue par Me Petit à Paris, chez le peintre François-Edouard Picot, le 20 septembre 1825.

Le sinistre suscita un grand émoi dans tout le pays, relayé par la presse. La solidarité qui se déploya pour venir en aide aux familles sinistrées qui avaient tout perdu fut à la mesure de cette émotion nationale et c'est ainsi qu'un groupe de 36 jeunes artistes apporta sa contribution en offrant des dessins réunis en un album relié destiné à être vendu aux enchères au profit des incendiés de Salins. Précieux témoignage de solidarité citoyenne autant qu'artistique, cet album fut exposé chez le marchand de dessins Schroth rue de la Paix puis vendu le 20 septembre 1825 pour la somme de 3.000 francs.
