EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment from Victor Hugo's iconic novel, "Notre Dame de Paris". The scene depicts Quasimodo, the hunchbacked bell-ringer of Notre Dame Cathedral, lifting Esmeralda high above his head. Created by Luc Olivier Merson and engraved by Gery Bichard in 1889, this image beautifully brings to life the tragic tale of love and betrayal. Quasimodo's immense strength is evident as he holds Esmeralda effortlessly in his arms. His face reflects a mix of determination and desperation, highlighting the complex emotions that define their relationship. In contrast, Esmeralda appears vulnerable yet defiant, her flowing dress symbolizing both her innocence and resilience. The intricate details captured in this engraving showcase Merson's artistic skill. Every line and shadow adds depth to the characters' expressions and emphasizes the dramatic nature of their connection. This print serves as a visual representation of Hugo's powerful storytelling ability. As viewers gaze upon this timeless work of art, they are transported back to 19th-century France - a time when literature was at its peak and tales like "Notre Dame de Paris" captivated audiences worldwide. It is an exquisite reminder of the enduring impact that great works of fiction can have on our imagination and understanding of human nature.
