About the Item

Architectural Study for the Restoration of Saint-Pierre Church in Avon, France. This unique architectural study was created as part of a church renovation project in a suburb of Paris. The sketches focus on the restoration of the front porch of Saint-Pierre Church in Avon, Seine-et-Marne, near Paris. The artist, Maurice Lambert, used a combination of watercolor, ink, and sepia pencil to craft this detailed study, which presents multiple perspectives of the porch: - Lower center bottom: A complete drawing of the porch itself. - Left side: A close-up view of the underside of the framework. - Right side: A view of the framework from above. - Top left corner: A quoted plan of the porch. A personal touch is found in the lower right-hand corner, where a handwritten dedication reads: "To my old mate and pal. A fond recollection of school." Maurice Lambert's signature follows this heartfelt note. For further historical information, please refer to the last three pictures, which showcase views of the original building. The study is beautifully showcased in a wood frame with glass protection. Dimensions: With frame: 40.94 in wide (104 cm) by 27.56 in high (70 cm). View: 38.98 in wide (99 cm) by 25.59 in high (65 cm). Reference: Designated as a Historic Monument in 1840, the Saint-Pierre d'Avon Church (77) stands as a remarkable testament to centuries of architectural evolution. Built in the 12th century, its bell tower was added in the 13th century, while the choir and portal were completed in the 16th century. One of its most distinctive features is the porch, where Madame de Maintenon, a devoted parish benefactress, taught catechism to the children of Avon beneath an elegant and authentic 17th-century awning. The church became a royal place of worship, frequented by the kings of France, who stayed at the nearby hunting lodge known as "Beautiful Water Fountain." On its historic registers lies the baptismal certificate of Louis XIII, recorded in 1606. Saint-Pierre d'Avon houses an important collection of tombstones, including that of Jean de Monaldeschi, squire of Queen Christina of Sweden, who was assassinated at her order in the stag gallery of the castle. Among its historical artifacts is also the tombstone of mathematician Étienne Bezout, a significant figure in mathematical history. A true architectural and historical gem, this church continues to preserve the legacies of French royalty, scholars, and figures from centuries past.
