EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Le Baron. . . chassa Candide du Chateau a grands coups de pied dans le derriere" transports us into the world of Francois Voltaire's renowned novel, Candide. The illustration, engraved by Jean Dambrun in 1787, vividly captures a pivotal moment from Chapter 1. In this scene, we witness the dramatic expulsion of Candide from the magnificent castle by the Baron. With great force and indignation, the Baron delivers notable kicks to Candide's rear end as he is driven out of the doors. The image beautifully portrays both physical pain and emotional turmoil. This engraving perfectly encapsulates one of the central themes explored in Voltaire's philosophical tale - that of innocence lost and harsh reality confronted. Through this powerful visual representation, we can almost feel Candide's shock and despair as his sheltered existence crumbles before him. The composition skillfully depicts other characters surrounding this tumultuous event - Cunegonde (the baroness), lovers caught up in a farce-like situation, a protective mother scolding her crying child. These additional elements add depth to the narrative being portrayed within this single frame. As viewers engage with this remarkable artwork from Moreau, they are reminded of Voltaire's enduring legacy during the Enlightenment period. This print serves as an invitation to delve deeper into Candide's journey towards enlightenment itself – one filled with banishment but also potential for growth and self-discovery.
