EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the esteemed authors Jean-Baptiste Poquelin dit Moliere and Pierre Corneille. Created in the 19th century by Jean-Leon Gerome, this print beautifully reproduces his original painting. The image portrays an intimate encounter between two literary giants of French literature. Moliere, known for his comedic plays that satirized society, sits comfortably on a chair while engaging in conversation with Corneille, renowned for his tragic dramas. Their friendship is evident as they lean towards each other across a table adorned with books and writing materials. The composition exudes an air of intellectualism and creativity. The furniture surrounding them hints at their shared habitat - perhaps a study or salon where these great minds would gather to discuss their craft. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line etched into their faces tells stories of wisdom gained through years of writing. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to the vibrant literary scene of 17th-century France. It serves as a testament to the power of human connection and collaboration within the world of art and literature. This lithograph not only celebrates these influential playwrights but also pays homage to Gerome's artistic talent in capturing their essence. It stands as a timeless piece that reminds us of the enduring impact these writers had on French culture and beyond.
