EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Arthur Rimbaud at the tender age of 17 in 1871. Captured by renowned photographer Etienne Carjat, this portrait offers a glimpse into the world of a young genius who would go on to revolutionize literature and arts. Arthur Rimbaud, a French poet born in Charleville, Ardennes, left an indelible mark on modern literature with his visionary works. Even at such a young age, he possessed an extraordinary talent that set him apart from his peers. This photograph captures the essence of his youth and brilliance. With piercing eyes that seem to hold countless stories within them, Rimbaud's gaze is both intense and introspective. The image exudes an air of mystery as we contemplate what thoughts might be running through his mind. It is evident that even in adolescence, he possessed a depth beyond his years. Rimbaud's influence extends far beyond poetry; he has inspired musicians and prefigured surrealism with his unconventional style. His poetic journey began early in life but abruptly ended before he reached 21 years old. As we admire this vintage portrait captured over a century ago, we are reminded of the fleeting nature of artistic brilliance. This photograph serves as a testament to Rimbaud's enduring legacy - forever frozen in time for us to appreciate and ponder upon.
