EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Honore de Balzac, one of the most influential French novelists of the 19th century, alongside the beloved characters from his renowned work "La Comedie Humaine". Created in 1838 by Prosper Merimee, this pen and ink drawing showcases Balzac's distinctive features - a writer's cap perched on his head, a top hat resting nearby, and a stick held firmly in his hand. Surrounded by an array of intriguing characters from his literary universe, Balzac stands as both creator and observer. From Vautrin to Cesar Birotteau to Eugenie Grandet, these figures come alive through Merimee's skilled artistry. Each character is meticulously depicted with intricate details that reflect their unique personalities and roles within Balzac's vast body of work. Displayed at the Musee de la Ville de Paris in Maison de Balzac, this print serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of both Balzac himself and "La Comedie Humaine". It offers viewers a glimpse into the imaginative world crafted by this masterful author whose works continue to captivate readers across generations. As we delve into this visual representation of literature at its finest, we are reminded not only of Balzac's genius but also of the power that storytelling holds. Through his words and now immortalized in this image, he invites us to explore human nature with all its complexities - an invitation that remains just as relevant
