EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting colored print depicts Victor Hugo (1802-1885), a renowned French poet, novelist, and dramatist of the Romantic movement. The image, titled "Victor Hugo" and created by the skilled engraver Henri Thiriat, was published in the Iberian illustration almanac of 1885. Born in Besançon, France, Hugo's literary career spanned over six decades, during which he produced an impressive body of work that continues to captivate readers and scholars alike. His literary contributions to the Romantic movement include iconic works such as "Les Misérables," "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame," and "The Legend of the Ages." The image captures Hugo in his later years, with a thoughtful and introspective expression, as if deep in contemplation. The artist's masterful use of color adds depth and dimension to the portrait, bringing the character of the famous author to life. The intricate details of the engraving, from the folds in Hugo's clothing to the texture of his hair, are a testament to Thiriat's exceptional skill. This print is a beautiful reminder of the enduring legacy of Victor Hugo, whose works continue to be celebrated as universal masterpieces of European literature. The Iberian illustration, with its exquisite style and attention to detail, is a fitting tribute to the literary genius of this remarkable man.
