EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Yorick & The Grisette," is an enchanting depiction of the renowned literary character Yorick from Laurence Sterne's classic novel "A Sentimental Journey Through France and Italy," published in 1768. In this image, Yorick, represented by the author himself, is seen engaging in a heartfelt moment with a grisette, a young, working-class woman. The grisette, dressed in simple, rustic attire, gazes intently into Yorick's eyes, while he tenderly holds her hand and reads aloud from an open book. The sentimental journey, which was an influential work of the time, follows the travels of Yorick as he navigates the complexities of love, friendship, and human emotion. This print beautifully encapsulates the novel's themes, illustrating the deep connection between Yorick and the grisette, as well as the power of literature to bring people together. The books in Yorick's hand serve as a reminder of the importance of knowledge and understanding in fostering meaningful relationships. First published in 1768, "Yorick & The Grisette" is a testament to the enduring appeal of Sterne's work and the profound impact it had on 18th-century literature. This evocative print invites us to reflect on the timeless nature of human emotions and the transformative power of literature to transport us to another world.
