EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the letter M from the French alphabet, beautifully engraved in 1887 by Joseph Charles Beuzon. Titled "Miserable" this artwork captures a profound sense of sorrow and misfortune. The image depicts a baby or child surrounded by symbols that evoke sadness and despair. A delicate mauve flower, known as muflier, rests beside them, symbolizing fragility and vulnerability. The word "Mere" (mother) is also present, emphasizing the importance of maternal tenderness even in times of hardship. Set against a backdrop reminiscent of a village cemetery, this engraving evokes feelings of loss and grief. The tiny drop falling from the child's eye serves as a poignant reminder of their suffering. Through this powerful composition, Beuzon invites viewers to reflect on life's hardships and the universal experiences of pain and sorrow. This piece is part of an exquisite collection called "Alphabet francais" published by A. Lemercier in 1887. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured every intricate detail in this photograph while preserving its historical significance. It offers us a glimpse into late 19th-century France with its unique blend of artistry and emotion.
