EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Sainte Vierge!s ecria-t-elle qu allons nous devenir? Un Homme tue chez moi!" depicts a powerful scene from chapter 9 of Candide, the renowned philosophical tale by Francois Voltaire. Engraved by Philippe Triere in 1787, this black and white illustration showcases the talent of Jean Michel the Younger Moreau. In this gripping image, we witness a moment of intense emotion and terror. A distressed woman exclaims to the Holy Virgin, expressing her fear and uncertainty about their future after discovering a lifeless body in her own bedroom. The atmosphere is charged with hysteria as lovers are confronted with an unexpected crime scene. The artist skillfully captures the period costume and setting, transporting us back to the Enlightenment era. The details on display - from the rapier lying near the corpse to the expressions of horror and shock on each character's face - evoke a sense of sin and horror that permeates throughout. This print not only serves as a visual representation of Voltaire's thought-provoking narrative but also highlights themes such as love, violence, and existential questioning. It invites viewers to delve into deeper reflections on human nature while appreciating both Triere's engravings skills and Moreau's ability to convey raw emotions through art.
