EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Soleil couchant: Victor Hugo" transports us back to the literary world of 19th century France. The image, captured by photographer Leonard de Selva, showcases a caricature drawing by Alfred Le Pepetit that was featured in the publication "Le Grelot" on November 3rd, 1883. The focal point of the print is none other than Victor Hugo himself, one of France's most celebrated writers. With his trademark beard and intense gaze, Hugo exudes an air of wisdom and creativity. Le Pepetit's skillful rendering captures not only Hugo's physical features but also his larger-than-life persona. The setting sun in the background adds a touch of melancholy to the scene, symbolizing both the end of a day and perhaps hinting at the twilight years of Hugo's life. As we admire this work, we can't help but be reminded of the immense impact that Hugo had on French literature and society as a whole. This print serves as a testament to both artistic talent and historical significance. It allows us to glimpse into an era where literature reigned supreme and writers like Victor Hugo were revered as cultural icons. A true treasure for any lover of French literature or art enthusiast alike.
