EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a poignant moment in history as Victor Hugo bids farewell to his friends and supporters in Antwerp on August 1st, 1852. The engraving, created by Frederic Theodore Lix around 1885, showcases the emotional scene with great detail. In the image, we see Hugo standing on a quay, surrounded by a diverse group of individuals. His face is filled with both sadness and determination as he prepares to depart from Belgium. Dressed in an elegant top hat and coat, he exudes an air of sophistication that befits his status as a renowned French writer and poet. As Hugo waves goodbye to those gathered around him, including women and children who have come to show their support, one cannot help but feel the weight of his exile from France due to political reasons. Despite this adversity, he remains resolute in his beliefs and continues to fight against Louis Napoleon Bonaparte's regime. Among the crowd stands Alexandre Dumas père, another prominent literary figure of the time. Their presence together signifies not only their friendship but also their shared commitment to artistic expression and freedom of thought. This photograph print serves as a testament to Victor Hugo's enduring legacy as an influential figure during this tumultuous period in European history.
