EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration for the renowned epistolary novel, Dangerous Liaisons (Les Liaisons dangereuses), created in 1934. The artwork, a fine example of art deco style, was crafted by George Barbier (1882-1932) and is now held in a private collection. The lithograph beautifully captures the essence of this allegorical and literary masterpiece written by Choderlos de Laclos. With its vibrant colors and intricate details, it transports us into the world of scandalous love affairs and manipulative characters that define the story. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage of France where both the novel and its accompanying artwork originated. It serves as a testament to French graphic arts and genre painting during this period. The image also hints at mythological elements intertwined within Dangerous Liaisons, adding another layer of depth to our interpretation. This fusion between mythology and literature creates an intriguing visual narrative that entices viewers to delve deeper into the complexities of human relationships explored in Laclos' work. Preserved through time with utmost care, this rare piece from a private collection allows us to appreciate not only Barbier's artistic talent but also his ability to capture the spirit of Les Liaisons dangereuses on paper.
