EDITORS COMMENTS
Anders Leonard Zorn's captivating black and white etching, Paul Verlaine I, dating back to 1895, showcases the renowned French poet in a thoughtful and introspective moment. The portrait, etched on ivory laid paper, presents Verlaine with a scowling expression, his moustache and goatee adding to the overall air of seriousness. The poet is depicted leaning on his elbow, dressed in a high collar shirt and a fez or tarboosh perched on his head. The choice of clothing and headwear reflects the artistic movements of the time, including realism and symbolism, which were popular in both France and Scandinavia during the 19th century. Verlaine's poetic heritage is further emphasized by the setting of the portrait, which is believed to have been taken in France. The image, a part of the Art Institute of Chicago's extensive prints and drawings collection, offers a glimpse into the life of one of the most influential figures of French literature. The etching's monochromatic palette adds depth and texture, making it a striking addition to any art gallery or art centre's collection. Overall, Paul Verlaine I by Anders Leonard Zorn is a masterful work of art that continues to captivate and inspire viewers, offering a glimpse into the past while remaining relevant in the present.
