EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Nemrod, 19th Century" is a powerful depiction of the biblical hero from Genesis. Created by Georges Marie Rochegrosse in the late 19th century, this artwork showcases his exceptional talent as an illustrator. The image portrays Nemrod with a bow in hand, ready to release an arrow towards his target. His heroic stance exudes strength and determination. The finely detailed illustration captures every nuance of Nemrod's character, showcasing Rochegrosse's mastery of line work. Victor Hugo, one of the greatest French writers of all time, published this engraving in Cent dessins: Extraits des oeuvres de Victor Hugo. Known for his literary genius and romanticism, Hugo often drew inspiration from biblical stories like that of Nemrod. The artist skillfully incorporates elements such as an eagle soaring above Nemrod and fallen arrows at his feet to enhance the narrative within this scene. These details add depth to the composition while symbolizing both victory and defeat. As we admire this remarkable print from Prismatic Pictures' private collection, we are reminded not only of Rochegrosse's artistic prowess but also Victor Hugo's profound influence on French literature. This engraving serves as a testament to their enduring legacies within their respective fields - art and writing - leaving us captivated by its timeless beauty.
