EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic scene from the 18th century, depicting Beaumarchais whipping in Saint Lazare. The engraving showcases the renowned French writer and playwright, Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais, holding in his hand the brochure of the Folle journee. This powerful image is derived from an apocryphal painting by the Comedie Francaise and is now housed at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France. Beaumarchais, known for his influential contributions to literature and theatre during this era, exudes both strength and determination as he engages in this intense act of fustigation. His resolute gaze suggests a man driven by passion and conviction. The artist behind this engraving skillfully brings forth the essence of Beaumarchais' character through intricate details and expert craftsmanship. Every stroke on paper seems to breathe life into this historical figure who played a significant role not only as a writer but also as an advocate for social justice. As we delve into this mesmerizing piece of art captured by Leonard de Selva's lens, we are transported back to a time when writers held immense power to shape society with their words. It serves as a reminder of how literature can be used as a tool for change even amidst tumultuous times.
