EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the intellect and wit of Francois-Marie Arouet, a man who would come to be known as Voltaire, one of the most influential figures in French literature and philosophy. The image, dated 1736, depicts Voltaire in the prime of his career, holding a book in his hand, a symbol of his lifelong dedication to the written word. Born in Paris in 1694, Voltaire began his literary career as a poet, but it was his satirical essays and plays that would bring him both fame and notoriety. A fierce critic of the Church and the French monarchy, Voltaire's works challenged the status quo and helped to shape the Enlightenment movement in France. Despite his outspoken nature, Voltaire was also a man of deep compassion and empathy. He advocated for the rights of the oppressed and the marginalized, and his writings on human rights, morality, and reason continue to resonate with readers today. This portrait offers a glimpse into the mind of a man who defied convention and dared to challenge the established order. With his piercing gaze and the weighty tome in his hand, Voltaire seems to be inviting us to join him on a journey of discovery, to explore the depths of human thought and the power of the written word. Voltaire's legacy as a writer and philosopher continues to inspire and influence thinkers and artists around the world. This portrait serves as a reminder of his enduring impact on French culture and the broader intellectual landscape of the Enlightenment era.
