EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases a caricature of the renowned French writer, Victor Hugo, as Zeus in exile on Guernsey. Created by Deloyoti in June 1867, this colourful lithograph captures the essence of Hugo's rebellious spirit and literary prowess. In this whimsical depiction, Hugo is portrayed with a laurel wreath adorning his head, symbolizing his status as a celebrated author. With lightning bolts emanating from his hand and an octopus wrapped around him like a cloak, he exudes power and defiance against societal norms. The tortoise at his side represents the slow but steady progress of his writing process. Isolated on an island - Guernsey - where he sought refuge during political turmoil in France, Hugo appears both proud and lonely. Despite being physically separated from society, he remains connected to the world through his pen and lyre. As one of the leading figures of French Romanticism, Victor Hugo challenged conventional ideas through his writings that often advocated for social justice. This portrait encapsulates not only his rebellious nature but also highlights the importance of literature as a tool for change. With its vivid colors and intricate details, this print serves as a testament to Victor Hugo's enduring legacy as an influential writer who fearlessly championed causes close to his heart.
