EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic face of Marie-Henri Beyle, famously known as Stendhal. The portrait, found in the esteemed Collection of the Musee Carnavalet in Paris, offers a glimpse into the life of this influential figure from the 19th century. Stendhal, born in 1783 and passing away in 1842, was a man of many talents. He was not only an accomplished writer but also a prominent art critic and diplomat. This lithographic masterpiece by Edme Quenedey beautifully captures his essence with its meticulous attention to detail. The neoclassical style employed by Quenedey adds an air of sophistication to Stendhal's visage. Every line etched on his face tells a story - perhaps reflecting his deep introspection or hinting at the complexities within him that he so skillfully conveyed through his literary works. Displayed against a simple background, Stendhal's piercing gaze draws viewers into his world. It is as if he is inviting us to explore our own emotions and thoughts alongside him – just as he did through his renowned novels such as "The Red and The Black" and "Charterhouse of Parma". This remarkable portrait serves as both a tribute to Stendhal's legacy and an invitation for admirers of fine art to delve deeper into the rich tapestry of French literature during this era. As we admire this print today, we are reminded once again why Stendhal remains one
