EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite plaster bust of Victor Hugo, created by the renowned sculptor Auguste Rodin in the 19th century. The bust is currently housed in the Museum of Fine Arts of Cambrai, France. Rodin's mastery is evident in this lifelike portrayal of Hugo, a celebrated French writer and literary icon. The intricate details carved into the plaster bring out every contour and expression on Hugo's face, showcasing Rodin's exceptional talent for capturing human emotion. Victor Hugo himself was a towering figure in French literature, known for his influential works such as "Les Misérables" and "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame". This portrait immortalizes him not only as a writer but also as a symbol of artistic brilliance during his time. The photograph, taken by Leonard de Selva, beautifully highlights the contrast between light and shadow on the sculpture. It emphasizes both its delicate features and its strong presence within its surroundings. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art captured through de Selva's lens, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by both Victor Hugo and Auguste Rodin. Their contributions to literature and sculpture continue to inspire generations with their profound creativity and insight into humanity.
