EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the enigmatic Phileas Fogg, the iconic protagonist from Jules Verne's timeless novel "Around the World in Eighty Days". Engraved by Louis Dumont in 1873, this print beautifully depicts Fogg's distinguished appearance and adventurous spirit. Standing tall with an air of confidence, Phileas Fogg is portrayed as a man of refined elegance. His full-length figure exudes sophistication, dressed impeccably in Victorian attire complete with a top hat. Noteworthy are his distinctive mutton chops that frame his face, adding to his distinct persona. As a character deeply rooted in literature history, Phileas Fogg embodies both curiosity and determination. A renowned adventurer and traveler, he embarks on an audacious journey around the world within a limited timeframe. This illustration perfectly encapsulates his unwavering commitment to this extraordinary feat. The background hints at the Reform Club where Fogg begins his epic voyage. Books surround him symbolizing knowledge and intellectual pursuits that fuel his thirst for exploration. The image also alludes to Fogg's potential involvement as an aviator or balloonist during his travels. This remarkable engraving transports us back to the 1800s when Jules Verne's literary masterpiece first captivated readers worldwide. It serves as a visual reminder of Phileas Fogg's indomitable spirit and celebrates Verne's enduring contribution to adventure fiction.
