EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dated 1885, captures Emile Augier, a renowned French playwright, in a rare moment of relaxation with his beloved wife and their cherished dog. Augier's illustrious career in the world of French literature spanned over five decades, from the 1840s to the 1880s. He is best known for his naturalistic and socially conscious plays that explored the lives of the middle and working classes. In this photograph, Augier, dressed in a formal suit and wearing a serious expression, stands between his wife and their dog. His wife, with an elegant gown and a gentle smile, places a hand on her husband's arm, while their dog, a small terrier, sits at their feet, gazing up at the couple with unwavering loyalty. The warm lighting and the soft focus of the image create an intimate and nostalgic atmosphere, transporting us back to the late 19th century. The photograph offers a glimpse into the personal life of a man who dedicated his professional life to capturing the human condition through his plays. It serves as a reminder that even the most accomplished individuals found joy and companionship in their families and pets. This photograph, a precious treasure from the past, invites us to reflect on the enduring bond between love, art, and family.
