EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intriguing characters of Lucien de Rubempre and Carlos Herrera, brought to life from the pages of Honore de Balzac's renowned novel, Les Illusions perdues. The engraving, created by an anonymous French artist in the 19th century, showcases these two enigmatic figures in a moment frozen in time. Lucien de Rubempre, a young and ambitious writer seeking fame and fortune, finds himself entangled with Carlos Herrera, a sham Jesuit priest who is later revealed to be an escaped convict named Vautrin. In this illustration, we see them standing side by side; Lucien exudes vulnerability while Carlos emanates an air of mystery. Their journey together begins when Carlos saves Lucien from his darkest moments in Angouleme and takes him under his wing. Together they venture to Paris where their destinies intertwine amidst the backdrop of La Comedie Humaine - Balzac's grand literary universe. The artist skillfully portrays both characters' distinctive traits through their costumes and postures. Lucien stands tall wearing a top hat that symbolizes his aspirations for success as a writer. Meanwhile, Carlos dons religious attire that conceals his true identity as he guides Lucien towards uncertain paths. This evocative image invites us into the complex world of Lost Illusions where dreams are shattered and illusions are dispelled. It serves as a visual testament to Balzac's masterful storytelling that continues to captivate readers even
