EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned French author and poet, Voltaire. Created in 1870, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of a man who left an indelible mark on literature and philosophy. Born as Francois Marie Arouet, Voltaire's intellectual prowess was unmatched as he penned over 20,000 letters and authored more than 2,000 books and pamphlets throughout his lifetime. Not limited to literary pursuits alone, Voltaire delved into scientific works such as "Elemens de la Philosophie de Newton" published in 1738. This guide to Isaac Newton's theories demonstrated his multifaceted genius. History, philosophy, religion, and politics were also subjects that occupied his sharp mind. Voltaire's unwavering commitment to social justice made him a fierce critic of societal and political injustices during his time. His outspoken nature often resulted in periods of exile or imprisonment. However, even after his passing in 1778, the French authorities recognized his immense contributions by ceremonially re-burying him at the Pantheon in Paris in 1791. In this black-and-white engraving from the late nineteenth century, we see Voltaire depicted with head held high - a symbol of resilience against adversity. The monochrome artwork adds depth to this historical portrait while emphasizing the wisdom etched upon his face. This print is not just an image; it represents a legacy that continues to inspire generations worldwide. It serves as a reminder of Voltaire's significant impact on literature and philosophy while immortalizing him as one of history's most influential thinkers.
