EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jeanne Duval, a prominent figure in the life of French poet Charles Baudelaire. Created in 1865 using pen and ink on paper, this portrait captures the essence of Duval's enigmatic beauty. The image measures 20.6x14.5 cm and is housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. The significance of this artwork lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its historical context. "Quaerens Quem Devoret" a handwritten note by Baudelaire himself, accompanies the portrait. This note was published by Auguste Poulet-Malassis, who was the first publisher of Baudelaire's renowned work "Les Fleurs du mal" in 1857. Duval served as both an inspiration and muse for Baudelaire, particularly influencing his creation of the Venus Noire section within "Les Fleurs du Mal". As an actress and mulatto woman, her presence added depth to Baudelaire's exploration of themes such as race, desire, and exoticism. This print offers a glimpse into a complex relationship between artist and subject that lasted until 1862 when they parted ways. It is important to note that this caption does not refer to any commercial use or company associated with it; rather it focuses solely on appreciating the artistic value and historical significance captured within this remarkable piece from www. bridgemanimages. com
