EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a precious piece of literary history - "Le Devoir et l'Inquietude - Poemes" handwritten by Gala in 1917. The delicate pen and ink on paper composition, measuring 16x12 cm per leaf, exudes an air of elegance and artistic mastery. Gala Grindel-Eluard, the wife of renowned poet Paul Eluard, poured her creative spirit onto these pages with her own hand. This intimate connection to the poet adds an extra layer of significance to this rare manuscript. The image captures not only the beauty of Gala's handwriting but also the essence of poetry itself. Each stroke seems to dance across the page, giving life to verses that explore themes such as duty and unease (le devoir et l'inquietude). It is a testament to Gala's talent as both a poetess and calligrapher. Preserved in a private collection, this extraordinary artifact offers us a glimpse into the literary world of early 20th-century France. Its presence evokes nostalgia for a time when handwritten manuscripts were treasured works of art. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured every detail in this photograph, allowing viewers to appreciate both the visual aesthetics and historical value contained within its frame. Whether you are drawn to literature or simply admire fine craftsmanship, this print is sure to captivate your imagination.
