EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in Jules Verne's timeless adventure novel, "Around the World in Eighty Days". The engraving, created by Adolphe François Pannemaker in 1873 and beautifully reproduced by Benett, Hippolyte Léon, transports us back to the 19th century. In this scene, we witness one of the main characters, Phileas Fogg, contemplating his next move during a thrilling card game. With intense focus etched on his face and surrounded by fellow players engrossed in their own strategies, Fogg ponders his options. As he holds up a diamond card with confidence and determination shining through his eyes, it becomes evident that this choice will shape the course of his extraordinary journey around the world. The image not only depicts an exciting moment from Verne's literary masterpiece but also offers a glimpse into the era's fascination with steam-powered locomotives and aviation. It showcases both the technological advancements of its time and Fogg's audacious spirit as he embarks on an ambitious quest to circumnavigate the globe within eighty days. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are transported into Fogg's world filled with excitement, danger, and endless possibilities. It serves as a reminder of our own thirst for adventure and exploration while honoring Jules Verne's enduring legacy as one of literature's greatest storytellers.
