EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The Periwinkles" offers a glimpse into the world of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, an influential 18th-century French philosopher and writer. The image showcases a scene from his autobiographical work, "Les Confessions" beautifully illustrated by Maurice Leloir. Set in the picturesque French countryside, we see Rousseau walking alongside Madame de Warens, his beloved companion and mentor. They stroll leisurely amidst towering trees and vibrant flowers while being accompanied by a loyal servant. The seductive allure of nature envelops them as they engage in deep conversations about life, philosophy, and their shared love for botany. Rousseau's autobiographical journey comes to life through this enchanting print. It captures not only the essence of his philosophical musings but also the profound impact that nature had on shaping his thoughts.

This exquisite engraving invites us to embark on our own introspective journey through time and space—immersing ourselves in the beauty of France's natural landscapes while contemplating life's deepest questions.
