EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Jules Verne's timeless novel "Around the World in Eighty Days" we witness the fearless spirit of Passepartout, one of literature's most beloved characters. Rendered beautifully through an engraving by Hippolyte Leon Benett, Passepartout is depicted engaging in a playful adventure that encapsulates the essence of travel and exploration. Unfazed by the perils that lie ahead, Passepartout fearlessly climbs atop a magnificent elephant as he embarks on his journey around the world. With a mischievous grin adorning his face, it is evident that he approaches each new encounter with curiosity and excitement. The intricate details captured in this 19th-century illustration transport us back to a time when wild animals roamed freely and traversing uncharted territories was both thrilling and dangerous. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the power of literature to ignite our imagination and transport us to far-off lands. Through Verne's masterful storytelling, Passepartout becomes more than just a character; he becomes an embodiment of courage and resilience in the face of uncertainty. This enchanting scene serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our innate desire for adventure. It invites us to embrace life's challenges head-on, just like Passepartout did during his daring escapades around the globe. So let us be inspired by this whimsical portrayal as we embark on our own journeys - whether they be physical or metaphor
