EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the renowned French writer and philosopher Voltaire (Francois-Marie Arouet) in his later years. Born on November 21, 1694, Voltaire lived an extraordinary life that spanned over eight decades, during which he left an indelible mark on European literature and philosophy. In this photograph, taken around 1778, Voltaire is depicted in the twilight of his life, with the passage of time evident in his wrinkled face and stooped posture. He is seen walking with a cane, a symbol of his advancing age, and wearing a tall, powdered wig that was fashionable during the 18th century. The philosopher is dressed in a simple, long coat, and he wears a hat to shield himself from the elements. Voltaire's contributions to French literature and philosophy were immense. He was a prolific writer, producing over 20,000 letters and more than 2,000 books and essays. He was a champion of reason and free thought, and he used his pen to challenge the established religious and political institutions of his time. Voltaire was also a master of satire and wit, and his works continue to be read and admired for their literary merit and their insight into the human condition. Despite his many accomplishments, Voltaire's life was not without controversy. He was exiled several times for his outspokenness, and he faced numerous challenges to his ideas. But he remained steadfast in his convictions, and he continued to write and engage with the world around him until his death on August 30, 1778. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the enduring legacy of this remarkable man, who continues to inspire and challenge us with his ideas and his courage.
