EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to the historic first night of Victor Hugo's groundbreaking romantic drama, "Hernani," at the Comedie Francaise in Paris, on February 25, 1830. The image, filled with the palpable tension of the moment, captures the intensity and passion of the play that would come to be known as the beginning of modern French literature. Hernani, a complex and unconventional work, was met with fierce opposition from supporters of the traditional French theatre. The play, with its raw emotion, unconventional structure, and socially provocative themes, challenged the established norms of the time. The photograph shows the eager audience, a mix of both supporters and detractors, as they gather to witness the unfolding drama. Victor Hugo, the playwright, stands at the center of the scene, a picture of determination and resolve. His innovative work, which would later be hailed as a masterpiece, was initially met with derision and ridicule. But as the curtain went up, the power of the words and the depth of the characters began to resonate with the audience, transforming the initial opposition into a standing ovation. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of art and the courage it takes to challenge the status quo. It serves as a reminder that even in the face of adversity, the pursuit of creativity and innovation can lead to groundbreaking achievements that leave a lasting impact on history.
