EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the renowned French writer and philosopher, François-Marie Arouet, better known by his pen name Voltaire. Born on November 21, 1694, in Paris, Voltaire was a leading figure of the French Enlightenment. He is celebrated for his wit, satire, and advocacy of religious tolerance and freedom of speech. Voltaire's literary output was vast and varied, encompassing novels, essays, poems, and plays. Some of his most famous works include "Candide," "Gulliver's Travels," and "Letters Concerning the English Nation." He also engaged in numerous public disputes with prominent intellectuals of his time, including Jean-Jacques Rousseau and John Locke. In this image, Voltaire is depicted in the prime of his life, with a thoughtful expression and a stylish wig. The print dates from the late 18th century, a time when Voltaire's influence was at its height. He had already spent decades as a prominent figure in French literary and intellectual circles, and his ideas continued to shape the course of European thought. Voltaire's legacy extends far beyond the realm of literature. He was a vocal advocate for religious tolerance and freedom of speech, and his ideas helped lay the groundwork for the modern concept of human rights. He also played a key role in shaping the French language, with many of his neologisms and expressions still in use today. This print serves as a reminder of Voltaire's enduring influence on Western thought and culture. It is a testament to his brilliance as a writer and his courage as a thinker, and it continues to captivate and inspire generations of readers and scholars.
