EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Jules Verne, the renowned French author, engrossed in his study of life at the bottom of the sea. Created as a caricature for L Algerie Comique et Pittoresque magazine in 1883, this colour lithograph by J. Chape showcases Verne's fascination with the mysteries that lie beneath the ocean's surface. Verne, known for his pioneering works of science fiction such as "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" was a visionary who pushed boundaries and explored uncharted territories through his writing. In this image, we see him surrounded by an array of marine creatures - squid, fish, snails - all representing the rich diversity found in underwater ecosystems. The artist skillfully portrays Verne's intense focus and curiosity as he delves into his research. His eyes are fixed on a book while he holds a magnifying glass to examine intricate details of sealife specimens displayed before him. This scene not only highlights Verne's dedication to scientific exploration but also serves as a testament to his ability to bring fantastical worlds alive through literature. Preserved within Bibliotheque de L Arsenal in Paris, France, this historic image offers us a glimpse into both Verne's imaginative mind and society's growing interest in understanding our planet's hidden wonders. As we admire this artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection without commercial intent or mention thereof let it inspire us to embrace our own sense of wonder and embark on journeys of discovery just
