EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of profound generosity and compassion. In the image, we see the renowned French writer Victor Hugo surrounded by a group of impoverished children from Veules-en-Caux. It was on September 24,1882, that Hugo organized a banquet for these underprivileged youngsters, an act that exemplifies his unwavering commitment to social justice. The engraving by Auguste Gerardin beautifully depicts this heartwarming scene, which was later featured in "Le Monde Illustre" on October 14th of the same year. The image showcases not only the stark contrast between privilege and poverty but also highlights Hugo's deep empathy towards those less fortunate. Hugo's dedication to alleviating human suffering is evident in every line etched into this engraving. His presence among these children symbolizes solidarity and hope amidst their dire circumstances. This powerful visual narrative serves as a reminder of the importance of equity and compassion in society. Preserved within a private collection today, this historical artifact continues to inspire viewers with its timeless message. Stefano Bianchetti's meticulous restoration work ensures that future generations can appreciate both the artistic beauty and humanitarian significance captured within this single frame. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of Victor Hugo's enduring legacy as an advocate for justice and equality – forever immortalized through artistry and benevolence.
