EDITORS COMMENTS
Dining room at Hauteville II, Juliette Drouet's house in Guernsey, 1883," is a captivating work by the Swiss artist Edmond de Palezieux. The painting depicts the interior of the dining room at Hauteville House, the home of renowned French poet Victor Hugo and his lover, Juliette Drouet, during their exile in Guernsey, Channel Islands. The room is bathed in the warm, golden light of the setting sun, casting long shadows and highlighting the intricate details of the room's decor. The fireplace, adorned with a falconnet sculpture, crackles with the comforting glow of a fire. The dining table, set with elegant china and crystal glassware, is laden with a sumptuous meal, ready to be enjoyed. The room's walls are adorned with a rich tapestry of colors, from the deep reds and greens of the upholstered chairs, to the warm yellows and oranges of the sunlit canvas above the fireplace. The painting itself, a depiction of the solar system, adds an intellectual and scientific touch to the room's decor. This painting is a testament to the beauty and charm of Hauteville House, a place where art, literature, and love came together in exile. It is a reminder of the rich heritage of French and European history, and the enduring power of art to transport us to another time and place." Edmond de Palezieux's masterful use of oil paint and his ability to capture the play of light and shadow in this sunlit room make this painting a true treasure of 19th century art. It is currently housed in one of the Paris museums, where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world.
