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.
