EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the world of Jules Verne's timeless adventure novel, "Around the World in Eighty Days". The engraving, skillfully created by Henri-Theophile Hildebrand in 1873, depicts a pivotal moment from the story. The scene unfolds within the prestigious Reform Club in London, where Phileas Fogg confidently declares his audacious plan to circumnavigate the globe. As he stands before a group of distinguished gentlemen, including Samuel Fallentin and Andrew Stuart among others, Fogg exudes an air of determination and self-assurance. This image perfectly captures the essence of Victorian society life with its refined atmosphere and intellectual pursuits. The members club serves as a backdrop for this extraordinary wager that will test Fogg's mettle and push him beyond his limits. As we gaze upon this evocative illustration, we cannot help but feel drawn into Fogg's remarkable journey. We sense both excitement and trepidation as he embarks on an epic quest filled with danger and unexpected encounters across different continents. Through Verne's vivid storytelling brought to life by Hildebrand's masterful engraving technique, we witness not only Fogg's personal triumph but also humanity's unyielding spirit of exploration. This print serves as a reminder that even in our modern age, where travel has become commonplace, there is still room for adventure and discovery.
