EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Verlaine teaching at the Institution Notre-Dame in Rethel, 1877-79" offers a glimpse into the world of renowned French poet Paul Verlaine. In this intriguing image captured by Germain Nouveau, Verlaine is depicted as an esteemed professor during his tenure at the institution. With pen, ink, and crayon strokes that bring depth to the scene, Nouveau skillfully portrays Verlaine's dedication to education. During his time in Rethel from June 1877 until 1879, Verlaine taught various subjects including French, English, history, and geography. This photograph not only showcases his commitment to imparting knowledge but also highlights his multifaceted talents beyond poetry. The composition serves as a testament to Verlaine's versatility and intellectual prowess. Nouveau himself was a prominent figure within the Symbolist movement and shared a deep friendship with both Verlaine and Rimbaud. Their connection adds another layer of significance to this artwork as it captures an intimate moment between two influential poets. This remarkable piece provides viewers with an opportunity to delve into the life of one of France's literary giants while shedding light on lesser-known aspects of his career.
