EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the front cover of Gil Blas, a renowned literary magazine, featuring the first instalment of Emile Zola's masterpiece "Lourdes". Created in 1894 by the talented artist Theophile Alexandre Steinlen, this colour lithograph captures the essence and allure of Zola's novel. "Lourdes" is part of Zola's Les Trois Villes trilogy and tells the compelling story of Pierre Froment, a priest who dares to abandon Catholicism in favor of embracing a religion centered around humanity. This groundbreaking work exemplifies Zola's naturalistic style and his exploration of themes such as seeking miracles and questioning religious dogmas. The image also portrays elements associated with literature and writing: female writers engrossed in their craft, recording observations diligently in their notebooks. It symbolizes not only the power that women have had throughout history as authors but also highlights their contribution to naturalism. Moreover, this photograph depicts a scene where individuals are eagerly waiting in line outside what appears to be a village associated with miracles. This reinforces the idea that human curiosity knows no bounds when it comes to witnessing extraordinary events or phenomena. Overall, this print from Bridgeman Images offers an intriguing glimpse into both historical literature and artistic expression. It serves as a reminder of how influential novels like "Lourdes" can be in challenging societal norms while capturing our imagination through vivid storytelling.
