EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Lucien de Rubempre, a character from Honore de Balzac's renowned novel "Les Illusions perdues". Illustrated by Antoine Alphee Piaud in the 19th century, this engraving showcases Lucien deep in thought as he writes a letter. Seated at a table with a quill in hand, Lucien's determined expression reveals his ambitious nature and his longing to make his mark as a poet in Paris. The interior setting portrays an atmosphere of poverty, with a humble bed serving as evidence of his meager circumstances. As part of La Comedie Humaine, Balzac's extensive collection of interconnected novels depicting various aspects of French society, "Les Illusions perdues" tells the story of Lucien's journey from the province to pursue his dreams in the bustling city. This image perfectly encapsulates the character's inner turmoil and determination to escape his humble beginnings. The fine details captured by Piaud bring this moment to life - from the intricate folds on Lucien's clothing to the delicate strokes that create depth and texture. This historical artwork is housed within Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. Immerse yourself into this evocative scene through this stunning print which beautifully conveys both Lucien de Rubempre’s aspirations and struggles on his path towards success.
