EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of Jean Jacques Rousseau, taken between 1884-90, offers a glimpse into the life of this influential figure. Rousseau, a French writer, philosopher, educator, naturalist and composer, is depicted in an etching by Claude Henri Watelet after Taraval. The phototype beautifully captures his essence and intellectual prowess. Rousseau's contributions to literature and philosophy have left an indelible mark on society. His ideas on social contract theory and the importance of individual freedom continue to shape political thought even today. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of his profound influence on Enlightenment thinkers and subsequent generations. Published as part of Dr. Woldemar von Seidlitz's "Allgemeines Historisches Porträtwerk" in 1884-90, this photograph showcases the enduring legacy of Rousseau's work. It serves as a testament to his multifaceted talents as both a thinker and artist. Through the lens of German School photographers from the 19th century, we are transported back in time to witness Rousseau's brilliance firsthand. This particular print comes from a private collection but has been made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform. As we contemplate this image, let us reflect upon Rousseau's lasting impact on our understanding of human nature and society at large.
