EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a marble sculpture of the renowned French philosopher, Francois-Marie Arouet Voltaire. Created by the talented artist Jean-Antoine Houdon in 1781, this masterpiece is housed in the Bibliotheque de la Comedie Francaise in Paris, France. Voltaire, also known as Voltaire, was a prominent figure during the Enlightenment period. His sharp wit and intellectual prowess made him one of the most influential philosophers of his time. In this sculpture, he is depicted without his signature wig but seated on a Louis XVI style chair adorned with classical drapery. The attention to detail is remarkable; every curve and contour of Voltaire's face exudes wisdom and contemplation. He wears a philosophers headband that symbolizes his dedication to rational thinking and pursuit of knowledge. This print captures not only the artistic brilliance of Houdon's work but also pays homage to Voltaire's significant contributions to philosophy and literature. It serves as a reminder of an era when intellectuals like Voltaire challenged societal norms and championed reason over blind faith. As we admire this exquisite piece through Peter Willi's lens, we are transported back in time to witness the essence of enlightenment embodied by one man who dared to question authority for the betterment of humanity.
