EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the enchanting world of "La Princesse de Babylone" by Voltaire. The image depicts Formosante and Amazan, two central characters in this philosophical tale written in 1768. Intrigue fills the air as we witness a pivotal moment between these lovers. Formosante, a princess of Babylon, stands gracefully beside her father, the king, who looks on with both pride and concern. Dressed in ornate oriental costumes adorned with feathers and turbans, they exude regality. Amazan, portrayed as a shepherd or hunter figure, gazes intently at his beloved from afar. His bow and arrow symbolize his determination to win her heart against all odds. Their love is forbidden due to their different social statuses but transcends societal norms. The artist Charles Monnet beautifully captures the essence of enlightenment through this illustration. The composition is carefully crafted with attention to detail - from the intricate canopy above them to the expressions on each character's face. As we delve into this mesmerizing scene frozen in time, we are reminded of Voltaire's exploration of love's power to challenge societal constraints and ignite personal growth. This print serves as a visual testament to the enduring themes found within "La Princesse de Babylone" inviting us into an imaginative realm where love knows no boundaries.
