EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from the 19th century, titled "Hernani's sublime, romantic dish - cartoon on Victor Hugo's play 'Hernani'", takes us back in time to the world of French theater. The anonymous artist skillfully captures the essence of Victor Hugo's renowned play, "The Battle of Hernani", through a clever and humorous caricature. In this scene, we see a bustling theater filled with spectators eagerly applauding a comedian who stands at center stage. However, what truly steals the show is the extravagant dish that sits before him. It is an egg-based creation that exudes both elegance and romance – a perfect representation of the sublime nature of Hernani. The attention to detail in this lithograph is remarkable; every line and curve brings life to each character and object depicted. The artist masterfully combines elements of food, comedy, and drama to create a visual feast for our eyes. Displayed at Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet in Paris, France, this artwork serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Victor Hugo's work. It reminds us not only of his literary genius but also his ability to captivate audiences across different art forms. Leonard de Selva expertly captured this historic piece through his photography skills while respecting copyright regulations. This print allows us all to appreciate and admire this fascinating glimpse into 19th-century theater culture.
