FRENCH ENGRAVINGS COLLECTION “GALERIE HISTORIQUE DE VERSAILLES” IN THE NMUH
Abstract
The NMUH collection of Ch. Gavard’s “Galerie historique de Versailles” is analyzed. Attribution of some prints of the collection is made and their origin is determined, which can be used in next studies. Retracing the collection’s path in coming to the NMUH, it likely belonged to the military general and collector P. Pototskyi until the year 1926. The current state of study about “Galerie historique de Versailles’s” engravings in the Palace of Versailles and in the NMUH is described, with purpose to determine what kind of the uniqueness the NMUH collection has. At the same time, for introducing into scientific circulation a new art, historical and cultural terminology is used a new method of “narrative rooms and narrative keys” that the issue of interconnection between the narrative (text) and the image allows schematically to represent.
Keywords: Galerie historique de Versailles, engraving, painting, history of Western Europe, the Palace of Versailles, Charles Gavard, the National Museum of Ukrainian History, P. P. Pototskyi
