Sketches of Voltaire at Age Eighty-One, 1775 - A Glimpse into the Mind of a Philosopher
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print, we are transported back to the 18th century to witness the essence of one of history's greatest thinkers. Created by Vivant Denon, these etchings offer an intimate portrayal of François-Marie Arouet, better known as Voltaire. At eighty-one years old, Voltaire's wisdom and intellect radiate from his piercing eyes and distinguished features. His curly hair cascades around his face with an air of sophistication. The attention to detail in this portrait captures not only his physical appearance but also hints at the depth of his philosophical mind. Denon skillfully portrays Voltaire's occupation as a writer and philosopher through subtle nuances in expression. We can almost feel the weight of knowledge that he carries on his shoulders as he gazes thoughtfully into the distance. As we delve deeper into this artwork, it becomes evident that Denon has captured more than just a likeness; he has immortalized a man who challenged societal norms and fought for freedom of speech. This sketch serves as a testament to Voltaire's enduring legacy. Displayed proudly within The Metropolitan Museum of Art, these sketches allow us to connect with history on a personal level. They remind us that even great minds like Voltaire were once mere mortals driven by their passion for knowledge and truth. Vivant Denon's masterful interpretation invites us
