Gustave Flaubert, a renowned French novelist, captivated readers with his literary masterpieces. His works, such as Madame Bovary and L'Education Sentimentale, were brought to life through stunning illustrations that added depth to the narratives. One lithograph depicts an illustration for Madame Bovary, showcasing Flaubert's attention to detail and his ability to transport readers into the world of Emma Bovary. Another lithograph captures the essence of Salammbo, a historical novel set in ancient Carthage. Created by artists like Rochegrosse and Prouve, these illustrations beautifully complemented Flaubert's vivid storytelling. In addition to his writing talents, Flaubert was also captured in various photographs and engravings throughout history. A coloured photo portrays him as Gustave Flaubert ecrivain (writer), giving us a glimpse into the man behind the words. Meanwhile, an engraving showcases him as a distinguished figure among French novelists. Flaubert's characters came alive on the pages of his novels; one colour lithograph illustrates Madame Bovary standing by a fireplace in her kitchen while another shows her husband being called out by a beadle about an important matter concerning their village spire. Flaubert's influence extended beyond literature; he even inspired individuals like Mrs Algernon Bourke who had her photograph taken at Lafayette studio in London in 1897. Through these captivating images and artworks associated with Gustave Flaubert's name or creations – from lithographs illustrating scenes from his novels to photographs capturing moments of inspiration – we gain insight into this iconic writer whose impact continues to resonate today.
