EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster transports us back to the late 19th century, when Victor Hugo's timeless masterpiece, Les Misérables, was first published. Created by the renowned artist Jules Cheret, this colour lithograph captures the essence of the romantic novel that has captured hearts for generations. The poster features a young girl in a shadowy silhouette against a vibrant background. Her delicate figure stands as an advertisement for Les Misérables, enticing viewers with its allure and intrigue. The use of shadows adds an air of mystery and drama to the composition, reflecting the complex characters and plotlines within Hugo's epic tale. Set against a backdrop depicting scenes from Paris during the July Revolution of 1830, this artwork immerses us in history while evoking emotions tied to love, sacrifice, and redemption. The presence of a servant maid carrying a pail hints at one of the central characters - Cosette - who endures hardship before finding solace amidst chaos. Cheret masterfully combines elements from both art and literature to create an alluring visual representation that beckons readers into Hugo's world. This print serves as both an homage to Les Misérables' enduring legacy and as an invitation for new readers to embark on their own journey through its pages. Displayed proudly in private collections worldwide thanks to eArchives Charmet and Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, this poster continues to captivate audiences over a century after its creation.
