EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Prosper Jolyot de Crébillon, a prominent figure in French literature during the 18th century. Painted by Jacques André Joseph Camelot Aved in 1746, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 140x109 cm and is currently housed at the Pushkin Museum in Moscow, Russia. In this striking image, Crébillon exudes an air of sophistication and intellect. His piercing gaze commands attention while his fur collar adds a touch of elegance to his attire. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this renowned dramatist who was famously known as "Crébillon père" or "Crébillon the father". As a rival of Voltaire, Crébillon's literary contributions were highly regarded during his time. He was celebrated for his intricate storytelling and profound understanding of human emotions. This portrait serves as a testament to his influential role as a writer and author. Notably, Crébillon is depicted with leopard skin draped over him, symbolizing strength and power. This choice further emphasizes his commanding presence within French literature. Preserved through time, this remarkable artwork allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent of Aved and the significant cultural impact made by Prosper Jolyot de Crébillon. It stands as a reminder of their enduring legacy that continues to inspire generations today.
