EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the poignant moment of Victor Hugo's final hours on his deathbed. Painted by Leon Daniel Saubes in 1885, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 41.5x53 cm and is currently housed at the Musee Bonnat in Bayonne, France. Victor Hugo, a renowned French author and writer of the Romantic era, is depicted here in his old age with a distinguished beard that adds to his wise and peaceful countenance. The artist skillfully portrays the fragility of life through Hugo's serene expression and stillness as he lies peacefully on his deathbed. The composition serves as a powerful memento mori, reminding us of our own mortality. It invites viewers to reflect upon their own existence and contemplate the inevitability of death. Saubes' attention to detail allows us to witness every wrinkle and line etched onto Hugo's face, emphasizing the passage of time. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back to that fateful day - May 22nd, 1885 - when one of literature's greatest minds bid farewell to this world. This image serves as a testament not only to Victor Hugo's legacy but also as a reminder that even in death there can be beauty captured on canvas.
