EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the poignant moment of the French poet Paul Verlaine on his deathbed. Created by artist Frederic Auguste Cazals, this drawing beautifully depicts Verlaine's final moments with great sensitivity and emotion. Paul Verlaine, a prominent figure in French literature during the 19th century, is shown lying peacefully on his deathbed. The artist has skillfully captured the frailty and vulnerability of Verlaine's condition, as he faces his inevitable departure from this world. The presence of a crucifix near him suggests that religion played an important role in his life and perhaps provided solace during these final moments. The drawing exudes a sense of melancholy and contemplation, reflecting both Verlaine's own introspective nature as well as the somber atmosphere surrounding death. It serves as a powerful reminder of our mortality and invites viewers to reflect upon their own lives. Giancarlo Costa's expert photography brings out every intricate detail of Cazals' artwork, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even more. This print is not only a testament to Verlaine's legacy but also a tribute to Cazals' artistic talent. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness one man's journey towards eternity. It serves as a timeless memento that celebrates both the life and work of Paul Verlaine while reminding us all of our shared humanity.
