EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Germaine de Stael, a prominent figure in French literature and politics during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Born in Paris in 1766, she was the daughter of Jacques Necker, a renowned French statesman and financier. Despite her unhappy marriage to the Swedish ambassador to France in 1786, Germaine led a life filled with intellectual pursuits and passionate affairs. One notable liaison was with Benjamin Constant, an influential author and political philosopher of that time. The photograph transports us back to 1843 when it was taken by Fanny Burney for her book "Diary and Letters of Madame D Arblay". It showcases Germaine's strong presence as she gazes into the distance with determination etched on her face. Throughout her life, Germaine experienced periods of exile at Coppet, her estate located by Lake Geneva. These moments away from society allowed her to reflect on her writing and further develop her political ideologies. Germaine de Stael's contributions to literature were significant; she is best known for novels such as "Delphine" (1802) and "Corinne" (1807), which explored themes of love, passion, societal constraints, and female empowerment. This remarkable print serves as a timeless reminder of Germaine de Stael's indomitable spirit—a woman who defied conventions both personally and professionally while leaving an enduring mark on French literary history.
