EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Terrour or Fright" is part of the renowned series "Le Bruns Passions of the Soul" by Charles Le Brun. Created in the 18th century, this print beautifully captures the intensity and complexity of human emotions. Intriguingly, this illustration is one of twenty-four plates that depict various passions expressed through facial expressions. Le Brun, a masterful artist, meticulously drew each emotion with great precision and detail. The engravings were then finely etched onto copper plates nearly the size of life. The subject matter at hand portrays terror or fright as experienced by an individual. The viewer can almost feel their heart racing and senses heightened as they gaze into the face depicted in this artwork. It serves as a powerful reminder of our shared humanity and how deeply emotions can affect us. This particular print is part of a private collection and remains in perfect condition despite its age. Its inclusion within Laurie & Whittle's publication further solidifies its significance within art history. As we observe this engraving today, we are reminded not only of Le Brun's exceptional talent but also his ability to capture raw human experiences on paper. This piece continues to resonate with viewers centuries later, serving as a testament to both its artistic merit and timeless relevance.
