EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the renowned French novelist and playwright, Alexandre Dumas, in all his glory. Taken around 1876 by the talented photographer Etienne Carjat, this woodburytype image showcases Dumas' commanding presence and intellectual prowess. Dressed impeccably in a distinguished suit, Dumas exudes an air of confidence as he gazes directly into the camera lens. His strong features are accentuated by the monochromatic tones, adding depth to his expressive face. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the essence of a man who revolutionized literature during the 19th century. As one of France's most celebrated authors, Dumas has left an indelible mark on both stage and page with his iconic works such as "The Three Musketeers" and "The Count of Monte Cristo". This portrait serves as a testament to his literary genius and enduring legacy. Displayed prominently at the Art Institute Chicago, this print is part of the esteemed Galerie Contemporaine Litteraire Artistique collection from 1878. Its inclusion in this prestigious publication further solidifies its significance within art history. Etienne Carjat's masterful composition not only captures Dumas' physical appearance but also hints at his profound intellect and creative spirit. This striking image invites viewers to delve into the world of one of France's greatest literary figures while paying homage to a remarkable era in cultural history.
