EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lettre Premiere, from Les Liaisons Dangereuses" transports us to a world of forbidden desires and clandestine affairs. Created by the talented artist Georges Barbier in 1934, this pochoir print beautifully captures the essence of Pierre Chodlerlos de Laclos' famous novel. In this intriguing scene, we see a seated woman at her desk, engrossed in writing a love letter. Her delicate features are enhanced by butterfly wings that symbolize both fragility and transformation. The atmosphere is charged with sexual intrigue as she navigates the dangerous liaisons depicted in the book. The attention to detail is exquisite; every stroke of the quill pen is meticulously rendered, evoking a sense of elegance and sophistication. A cherub hovers above her shoulder, perhaps serving as an impish accomplice or guardian angel in matters of love. Barbier's artistic prowess shines through his masterful use of color and composition. The French illustrator effortlessly brings to life this iconic work of art from France's cultural heritage. Through his brushstrokes, he invites us into a world where passion collides with societal norms. As we gaze upon this enchanting piece, we are reminded that love can be both beautiful and treacherous—a timeless theme explored throughout history. This artwork serves as a testament to Barbier's talent and his ability to capture complex emotions within a single frame.
