EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a series of caricatures featuring the renowned French writer, Victor Hugo, and his play Les Burgraves. Created by the talented artist Honore Daumier in 1843, this lithograph captures the essence of Hugo's theatrical masterpiece. In this particular plate, we see Victor Hugo himself depicted with a sense of disappointment on his face as he gazes up at the starry sky. The image cleverly portrays him lorgnant les voutes bleues (gazing at the blue vaults), symbolizing his deep contemplation and connection to the celestial world. Hugo, known for his exceptional talent as both an author and poet, had recently opened Les Burgraves at the Theatre Francais when this caricature was created. The satirical nature of Daumier's work adds an element of humor to this portrayal, highlighting Hugo's reaction to perhaps less-than-stellar reviews or audience reception. Displayed proudly in Maison de Victor Hugo in Paris, France today, this artwork serves as a testament to both artists' contributions to French literature and art history. It reminds us that even great minds like Victor Hugo can experience moments of disappointment but continue to inspire generations through their creative endeavors.
