EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Arthur Rimbaud, the renowned French poet, as he gracefully plays the piano. The image showcases a young Rimbaud engrossed in his musical performance, with pen and ink on paper capturing every detail of this intimate moment. The photograph is a testament to the power of music, as it beautifully illustrates the famous quote "La Musique adoucit les moeurs" (Music soothes the savage breast). Rimbaud's passion for both poetry and music shines through in this portrait, revealing his multifaceted artistic talent. Paul Verlaine, another prominent French poet and close friend of Rimbaud, skillfully captured this candid scene. His expertise in caricature and sketching brings an added layer of depth to the image. Through Verlaine's lens, we catch a glimpse into Rimbaud's inner world - a realm where creativity flows freely. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from a private collection, we are transported back in time to witness one of history's greatest literary figures immersed in his craft. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also pays homage to Rimbaud's enduring legacy.
