This painting is a remarkably sensitive portrait of rural life in northern France. Dagnan-Bouveret took up the theme of the Pardon, an old Breton folk pilgrimage entrenched in traditional faith, following his visits to Ormoy. Dagnan-Bouveret’s “Pardon” paintings appealed to a range of critics, from conservative to avant-garde. While the defenders of Beaux-Arts convention saw in these pictures a confirmation of traditional social and religious values, similar to the moralizing sentiment of religious themes, others read a newer, less orthodox meaning in which the traditional setting of Brittany, thoroughly foreign to the city art-lover, provided a critical arena for a psychological — even ethnographical — study of social behaviour. Dagnan-Bouveret employed an unusual working method for the time, using drawings and tracings made from in situ photographs of costumed worshippers and from more formally posed photographs of members of his family.

Montmartre Cemetery in Paris, France, is one of the city's major cemeteries. It's the big one for the north part of the city. (Pere Lachaise for the east, Montparnasse for the south, and...I forget which big one is for the west.)

 

Although Pere Lachaise is the most famous in town -- and largest -- Montmartre Cemetery also has its share of dead celebrities. It's often called the Artists' Cemetery Berlioz, Najinsky, Dumas, Degas are buried here, among others. (Yet, I believe most of France's post-modern poets -- like Rimbaud -- are actually at Montparnasse.)

 

At any rate, here's a snapshot of what you can find in Montmartre Cemetery. A relaxing garden feel with a few nice panoramas and some pretty headstones. It's definitely worth a visit.
