Adopt a New Acquisition


Engravings of the Four Times of the Day - Morning


Lebrun. Les quatre parties du jour. Print, ca. 1650

Adopt for: $1,875



Gabriel Lebrun, 1625–1660. Les quatre parties du jour; The four times of the day. Paris: François Mazot, circa 1650.

Gabriel Lebrun’s allegorical representations of Morning, Noon, Afternoon, and Night are particularly interesting to the Folger because they have captions in French and in English. This implies that they were not only marketed in England, but marketed to non-elite purchasers who wouldn’t be able to read French as a matter of course.
