EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a pivotal moment from Victor Hugo's timeless masterpiece, Les Misérables. Entitled "Scene from Les Miserables: Thenardiers escape" this 19th-century French School print transports us into the heart of the story. The image depicts Monsieur Thénardier and his wife desperately attempting to flee their imprisonment. With ropes in hand, they descend down a towering wall, their faces etched with fear and determination. The intensity of the scene is palpable as we witness their daring escape unfold before our eyes. Les Misérables, renowned for its powerful portrayal of human struggle and redemption, comes alive in this evocative illustration. It serves as a visual testament to Victor Hugo's genius as both a writer and observer of society. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported back to 19th-century Paris, immersing ourselves in the rich tapestry of French culture and literature. The image not only pays homage to one of France's greatest writers but also reminds us of the enduring power that stories hold over our collective imagination. Bridgeman Images' careful preservation allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured by the anonymous artist behind this engraving. Through it, we can almost hear the characters' whispered conversations and feel their hearts pounding with anticipation. This remarkable print from Fine Art Finder is more than just an exquisite piece; it is an invitation to delve into the world created by Victor Hugo – a world where hope prevails
