EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported to the rustic countryside of 19th century France. The illustration depicts a charming scene from Guy de Maupassant's novel "Les twenty five francs de la superieure" brought to life by the talented artist E. Bertin and engraver Fortune Meaulle. The focus of the image is on a couple of peasants, with the man wearing a blouse and hoof, engaging in an animated conversation with a young woman. Their body language suggests a playful interaction as they seem to be engaged in some kind of game or seductive banter. The woman confidently pushes back against the man's advances but does so with a smile that radiates light and warmth. This enchanting artwork captures not only the essence of human connection but also reflects themes prevalent in French literature at that time - desire, love, shyness, and communication. It serves as a visual representation of Maupassant's exploration into the complexities of relationships between individuals from different social backgrounds. Displayed within private collections around the world, this evocative engraving continues to captivate viewers with its timeless depiction of human emotions and interactions. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but be drawn into this intimate moment captured by Stefano Bianchetti through his lens as he preserves history through artistry.
