EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The century of the Lumieres: philosophers Jean Jacques Rousseau and Voltaire" takes us on a journey back in time to the 18th century, where two brilliant minds illuminated the world with their philosophical ideas. The unknown artist behind this allegorical masterpiece skillfully captures the essence of these influential thinkers. In this thought-provoking image, we see Jean Jacques Rousseau and Voltaire depicted as beacons of light, symbolizing their profound impact on society. Their enlightened ideas radiate from them, reaching out to illuminate the people around them. It is through their writings and teachings that they challenged traditional beliefs and championed reason, freedom, and progress. Rousseau's emphasis on individual freedom and his belief in natural human goodness resonated deeply with many during his time. Meanwhile, Voltaire's sharp wit and criticism of religious intolerance made him a prominent figure in French intellectual circles. Leonard de Selva beautifully captures the spirit of these philosophers by showcasing their intellectual prowess through intricate engravings. This photograph serves as a reminder of how these great minds shaped our understanding of philosophy, literature, politics, and human rights. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are reminded that even centuries later, Rousseau and Voltaire continue to inspire us to question societal norms and strive for enlightenment in our own lives.
