1828 Amiens Blotter Du Bois Jules Places Verne Work Room
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the workroom of Jules Verne, the renowned French author of science fiction and adventure novels, located at 1 Rue Charles Dubois in Amiens. The image, taken in 1905, invites us into Verne's personal space, providing a glimpse into the mind of the man who brought us "Journey to the Center of the Earth," "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea," and "Around the World in Eighty Days." The room is filled with the paraphernalia of a dedicated writer: a large, worn armchair, a window looking out onto a tranquil landscape, and a table strewn with books, papers, and a blotter. The room's simple yet functional decor reflects the practicality and orderliness that Verne is known to have brought to his writing. The window, with its view of the rolling hills and trees, likely provided Verne with inspiration for his vivid descriptions of landscapes and natural wonders. The chair, where Verne no doubt spent countless hours crafting his intricate and imaginative stories, now invites us to imagine the creative process that unfolded within its confines. The year 1828 is significant in Verne's life, as it marks the year of his birth. This photograph, taken over 77 years later, serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring impact of Verne's work on literature and the imagination. The historical significance of this workroom is further emphasized by its location in Amiens, a city rich in cultural and literary history. This photograph is not only a fascinating glimpse into the personal work space of a literary giant, but also a reminder of the power of the written word to transport us to new worlds and inspire our own imaginations.
