EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the likeness of Francois-Marie Arouet, better known by his nom de plume Voltaire, a renowned French philosopher, writer, and historian of the Age of Enlightenment. Born on November 21, 1694, in Paris, Voltaire's brilliance and wit earned him a place among the greatest minds of the 18th century. Voltaire's literary output was prolific and varied, encompassing poetry, plays, essays, and novels. He is perhaps best known for his philosophical treatises, such as "Candide" and "Letters on the English," which challenged the established religious and political norms of his time. A fierce advocate for religious tolerance and individual freedom, Voltaire's influence extended far beyond the literary sphere, shaping the intellectual and cultural landscape of Europe. Despite his many accomplishments, Voltaire's life was not without controversy. He was frequently embroiled in public feuds with powerful figures, including the Catholic Church and the French monarchy. His outspokenness and irreverent humor earned him both admirers and enemies, but his impact on the intellectual world remained undeniable. This engraving, likely produced during Voltaire's later years, shows him in a thoughtful and introspective pose, reflecting the depth and complexity of his intellect. The image captures the essence of a man who, through his writings and ideas, helped to shape the course of Western thought and continue the Enlightenment's legacy. Voltaire's influence can still be felt today, as his ideas continue to inspire and challenge us in the 21st century.
