EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the renowned French writer Jules Verne in an intriguing pose. Titled "Jules Verne pinching the earth to his pen" this print by Gill is part of the collection "The men of today" from the 19th century. In this image, Jules Verne can be seen with a mischievous smile on his face as he playfully pinches the Earth between his fingers and his trusty pen. The artist, Andre Gill, skillfully combines elements of caricature and realism to create a thought-provoking visual representation of Verne's literary genius. Verne's contribution to French literature is immeasurable, as he pioneered science fiction writing with timeless classics such as "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" and "Around the World in Eighty Days". This photograph pays homage to his imaginative storytelling abilities while also capturing his larger-than-life personality. The photographer Leonard de Selva has expertly captured every detail, highlighting both Verne's intense focus on his craft and his profound connection with nature. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of Verne's ability to transport readers into fantastical worlds through words alone.
