EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed portrait of the renowned French writer, Francois Marie Arouet, famously known as Voltaire. The image is a close-up from the original artwork titled "Different Physiognomies of Voltaire" by Huber. It beautifully captures the essence and character of this influential literary figure. Voltaire, born in 1694 and passing away in 1778, was an intellectual powerhouse during the Enlightenment period. His writings challenged societal norms and advocated for freedom of speech, religious tolerance, and social justice. This portrait reflects his sharp intellect and piercing gaze that seem to penetrate through time. The engraving skillfully brings out every intricate detail on Voltaire's face - from his expressive eyes to his distinguished facial features. The artist behind this masterpiece is Jean Huber (1721-1786), who has successfully captured Voltaire's spirit with remarkable precision. Displayed in a private collection, this photograph print allows us to appreciate the brilliance of both Huber's artistry and Bianchetti's photography skills. It serves as a reminder of Voltaire's significant contributions to French literature and philosophy during the 18th century - often referred to as the "Century of Light". This enchanting portrayal pays homage to one of history's most celebrated writers while also offering us a glimpse into his complex personality. As we admire this image, we are reminded of Voltaire’s enduring legacy that continues to inspire generations even today.
