EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the renowned play "Tartuffe or the hypocrite deceiver" by Molière, dating back to 1664. The image showcases an intriguing interior setting with Lady Elmire at its center, dressed in a stunning frock that reveals her deep cleavage. She sits gracefully on a chair, her right arm resting upon a thick book placed on a nearby table. However, what truly adds depth to this composition is the presence of two other characters. Behind Lady Elmire stands Tartuffe himself, portrayed as he attempts to seduce her with his deceptive charm. Meanwhile, in the background lurks Orgon, Elmire's husband who remains hidden under a table and watches their interaction unfold. Through this powerful visual narrative, Elmire skillfully exposes Tartuffe's true nature and manipulative intentions to her oblivious husband. This comedic portrayal sheds light on themes of blind faith and religious fanaticism being exploited for personal gain. The artist behind this remarkable engraving is Jacob Houbraken from Amsterdam during the period between 1760 and 1780. His attention to detail brings every element of this scene to life while capturing the essence of Molière's timeless masterpiece. This print serves as both an artistic representation of one pivotal moment within "Tartuffe" and an invitation for viewers to delve into its rich storyline filled with intrigue and social commentary.
