EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print depicts Lucien de Rubempre, a character from Honore de Balzac's renowned novel Les Illusions perdues, in a state of profound sorrow. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of his overwhelming grief. Seated in an elegant armchair, Lucien is portrayed as a man burdened by pain and sadness. His posture reflects the weight of his emotions as he slumps forward, seemingly crushed by the weight of his sorrows. The lines etched on his face reveal a depth of suffering that is palpable to the viewer. Lucien's ambitious nature is evident even in this moment of despair. Aspiring to make his mark as a poet in Paris, he embodies both determination and vulnerability. This duality adds complexity to his character and makes him all the more relatable. Intriguingly, there is also a hint of melancholy elegance surrounding Lucien; perhaps it stems from the cigar delicately held between his fingers or maybe it emanates from within him - an aura that encapsulates both beauty and tragedy. This powerful illustration serves as a poignant reminder of the human capacity for resilience amidst adversity. It invites us to reflect on our own struggles and aspirations while immersing ourselves in Balzac's rich literary world.
