EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Jean Baptiste Poquelin, better known as Molière. Born in 1622 and departing this world in 1673, Molière left an indelible mark on French literature and theater. The identity of the artist behind this stunning portrait remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the already intriguing subject. Molière's contribution to French culture cannot be overstated. As a playwright and actor, he revolutionized comedic theater with his satirical works that exposed societal hypocrisy and human foibles. His plays such as "Tartuffe" and "The Misanthrope" continue to entertain audiences worldwide even centuries after their creation. In this engraving by Stefano Bianchetti, we see Molière captured in a moment of contemplation. There is a sense of depth in his eyes that reflects both intelligence and wit - qualities for which he was renowned during his lifetime. As one delves into the details of this image, it becomes clear that it pays homage not only to Molière but also to all writers who have shaped literary history. It serves as a reminder that authors like him are immortalized through their words long after they depart from our mortal realm. This print is more than just a visual representation; it encapsulates the essence of French literature itself – timeless, thought-provoking, and forever cherished by those who appreciate its beauty.
