EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of Moliere, one of the greatest dramatists and playwrights in history. Painted by Charles Le Brun in 1660, this oil on canvas masterpiece showcases Moliere's charismatic presence and undeniable talent. In this portrait, Moliere exudes confidence as he gazes directly at the viewer with piercing eyes. The artist skillfully captures every detail of his subject's face, from the subtle lines on his forehead to the twinkle in his eye. Moliere's expressive features reveal a man who is not only intelligent but also possesses a mischievous sense of humor. The warm tones and delicate brushstrokes used by Le Brun add depth and richness to this artwork. The background is kept simple, allowing all attention to be drawn towards Moliere himself. This composition perfectly encapsulates the theatricality that was so central to his life and work. Displayed prominently at the Pushkin Museum in Moscow, Russia, this portrait serves as a testament to Moliere's enduring legacy. It reminds us of his immense contributions to French literature and theater during the 17th century. As we admire this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the brilliance of Jean-Baptiste Poquelin - better known as Moliere - an extraordinary individual whose words continue to resonate with audiences worldwide today.
