EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the famous painting "Souper des philosophes (La sainte cene du patriarche)" from the esteemed Collection of Voltaire Foundation. Painted in the rococo style, this oil on canvas masterpiece is a fine example of genre art that depicts an extraordinary gathering of influential philosophers. The composition portrays a lively and intellectual supper where prominent thinkers such as Diderot, Schwitzerland, Voltaire, Marmontel, Grimm, Huber, La Harpe, Jean 1721-1786 and d'Alembert are engaged in deep conversation. The artist skillfully captures their animated expressions and gestures as they exchange ideas and challenge each other's intellects. Each philosopher at the table represents a distinct school of thought or philosophical movement prevalent during that era. Their presence symbolizes not only their individual contributions to philosophy but also their collective pursuit of knowledge and enlightenment. The significance of this artwork lies in its representation of intellectual camaraderie amidst diverse perspectives. It serves as a reminder that even great minds can come together to share thoughts and engage in meaningful dialogue for the betterment of society. Preserved by the Voltaire Foundation, this remarkable painting offers us a glimpse into an important moment in history when these brilliant minds converged over supper to discuss profound ideas. Its existence serves as a testament to the enduring impact these philosophers had on shaping our understanding of human thought and progress.
