EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The lovers Ethel and Ordener are caught by Lieutenant d'Alpheld" transports us to a dramatic scene from Victor Hugo's renowned novel, Han d Islande. The illustration, created by Georges Marie Rochegrosse in the 19th century, beautifully captures the essence of forbidden love. In this intense moment, Ethel and Ordener find themselves entangled in a secret affair within the confines of a castle where Ethel's father is held captive. As they embrace each other discreetly, their clandestine romance is abruptly interrupted by Lieutenant d'Alpheld. His presence casts an air of tension and uncertainty over the scene. Victor Hugo, known for his profound literary works during the Romantic movement, skillfully weaves together themes of love and secrecy in this particular story. Through Rochegrosse's intricate depiction, we witness the emotional turmoil faced by these star-crossed lovers as they navigate through societal constraints. The delicate lines and shading used in this engraving evoke a sense of nostalgia for 19th-century artistry while capturing the raw emotions portrayed in Hugo's writing. This print serves as a visual testament to both Hugo's genius storytelling abilities and Rochegrosse's talent for bringing words to life on paper. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image from Fine Art Finder’s collection curated by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded once again of Victor Hugo’s enduring legacy as one of France’s greatest writers.
