EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the death mask of one of France's most celebrated literary figures, Victor Hugo. Created in 1885 by Aime Jules Dalou, this bronze sculpture captures the essence of Hugo's enigmatic persona. The photograph, taken in 1926 by Giraudon, transports us to Maison de Victor Hugo in Paris. Victor Hugo was not just a writer; he was a romantic novelist, painter, artist, dramatist, and poet. His contributions to French literature are immeasurable. In this portrait, we see an elderly man with a long beard and closed eyes - an image that reflects his profound wisdom and creative genius. The funerary nature of this piece adds a somber tone to the photograph. It serves as a poignant reminder that even great minds like Victor Hugo eventually succumb to mortality. Yet through his works such as "Les Misérables" and "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame" he continues to live on eternally in our hearts. Displayed against a plain background, every detail is accentuated - from the lines on his face to the texture of his beard. This print allows us to connect intimately with Victor Hugo's legacy while contemplating our own mortality. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded once again why art has the power to transcend time and touch our souls profoundly.
