EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page and frontispiece of the 1885 edition of Gustave Flaubert's iconic novel, Madame Bovary. The edition, published by Quantin, is a part of Flaubert's complete works and features a striking portrait of the writer himself by C. Commanville. Flaubert's masterpiece, set in France during the 19th century, explores themes of love, desire, and societal expectations through the tragic story of Emma Bovary. The open book depicted in the photo represents not only this particular novel but also serves as a symbol for literature itself. The inclusion of Flaubert's portrait adds an intimate touch to this print. Captured by C. Commanville, it offers viewers a glimpse into the face behind such profound storytelling. As one gazes at his image, they are reminded that every word penned on those pages originated from his creative mind. This photograph transports us back to a time when writers like Flaubert were revered for their ability to craft stories that resonated with readers across Europe and beyond. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power that literature holds over our imaginations and emotions. Patrice Cartier has skillfully captured this moment in history through his lens, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry within these pages and its significance within French literary culture.
