EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a stunning detail of the Monument to Alexandre Dumas Pere, the readers. Created in 1883 by Gustave Doré, this stone and bronze masterpiece stands proudly in Place Malesherbes, Paris, France. The monument pays homage to Alexandre Davy de La Pailleterie, better known as Alexandre Dumas Pere, a renowned French writer and author. Known for his iconic works such as "The Three Musketeers". Dumas is celebrated for his contributions to literature and playwriting. In this particular detail of the monument, we see two figures seated on either side of a large book. The contrast between them is striking - one figure represents the working class while the other embodies the middle class or bourgeoisie. This juxtaposition highlights societal divisions during that era. What makes this photograph even more intriguing is the presence of barefootedness on one figure. It symbolizes humility and perhaps serves as a reminder that literature has no boundaries or restrictions based on social status. Doré's attention to detail brings out every intricate feature of these statuesque figures. Their posture exudes an air of contemplation and deep immersion in their reading material. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from late 19th century Giraudon edition, we are transported back in time to witness not only a beautiful sculpture but also an artistic representation of social classes and their relationship with literature.
