EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "La Morgue" is an illustration from the 19th-century novel "Han d Islande" by Georges Marie Rochegrosse. The print showcases a scene of mourning, depicting a soldier standing in front of a morgue with several corpses laid out on display. A young boy stands beside him, his face filled with surprise and shock at the sight before him. The artist skillfully captures the somber atmosphere of this moment, emphasizing the emotional impact of death on both young and old. The detailed depiction of the bodies adds to the realism and intensity of the image. The author Victor Hugo, known for his literary masterpieces such as "Les Misérables" and "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame" published this illustration in his collection called "Cent dessins: Extraits des oeuvres de Victor Hugo". This collaboration between two great French artists highlights their shared interest in exploring themes related to life's fragility and mortality. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking artwork, we are reminded not only of our own mortality but also of our capacity for empathy towards those who have experienced loss. It serves as a poignant reminder that death is an inevitable part of life's journey, urging us to cherish every precious moment we have with loved ones.
