EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the poignant final scene of Moliere's comedic masterpiece, Scapin's Furries. In this moment, we see Scapin, portrayed with great emotion and skill, pretending to be hurt and dying as he humbly asks for forgiveness from those he has wronged. The engraving by Janet-Lange in the popular Barba edition from the 19th century beautifully brings to life the drama and complexity of this iconic play. Originally presented on 24 May 1671, Scapin's Furries was met with such acclaim that it was played an impressive 16 consecutive times. This enduring piece showcases Moliere's genius for blending humor with deeper themes of repentance, forgiveness, and human nature. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when theatre held a special place in society - where audiences were captivated by stories that entertained while also provoking thought. The intricate details captured in this engraving invite us to reflect on our own capacity for forgiveness and understanding. Through the lens of history and artistry, we are reminded of the timeless relevance of Moliere's work and how it continues to resonate with audiences centuries later. This print is not just a visual representation but a window into a world rich with emotion, wit, and humanity.
