EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "The arrogant squad of hired applauders and ticket sellers" from Honore de Balzac's renowned novel, Les Illusions perdues. The illustration, created by an anonymous French artist in the 19th century, showcases a male group standing with an air of superiority. Dressed in traditional Parisian attire, their three-quarter length capes add to their theatrical presence as they exude confidence and arrogance. These individuals are part of la puante escouade des claqueurs et vendeurs de billets - the notorious squad responsible for manipulating applause and selling tickets. Balzac's Lost Illusions is a significant work within his larger collection known as La Comedie Humaine. Written between 1837 and 1843, this masterpiece explores themes of ambition, deceit, and the harsh realities behind success in society. The engraving beautifully portrays the characters that bring life to Balzac's narrative. With its impeccable detail and composition, it transports us back to a time when theater was at its peak in Paris. As we gaze upon this historical image preserved by Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France; we cannot help but be captivated by these intriguing figures who played pivotal roles behind the scenes. This artwork serves as a reminder that even amidst grand illusions on stage, there exists a complex web of manipulation orchestrated by those seeking power or financial gain.
