EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Maurice Lefebvre-Desvallieres, a renowned French playwright from the late 19th century. Taken in 1893 by artist Benque as part of the prestigious Felix Potin collection, this portrait showcases Desvallieres' striking presence and commanding gaze. Dressed in traditional Victorian attire, Desvallieres exudes an air of sophistication and intellect. His well-groomed beard adds to his distinguished appearance, reflecting both his occupation and the fashion trends of the time. The monochrome aesthetic further emphasizes his timeless appeal. As one of France's most celebrated dramatists, Desvallieres left an indelible mark on the world of theater with his thought-provoking works. This photograph serves as a testament to his influence and legacy within French culture. The location remains unknown but is likely somewhere in France, where Desvallieres spent much of his life honing his craft. The attention to detail captured by Benque allows us to appreciate not only Desvallieres' physical features but also hints at the depth and complexity that characterized his plays. Preserved through time by The Print Collector29, this image offers a glimpse into a bygone era when playwrights held significant cultural importance. It stands as a tribute to Maurice Lefebvre-Desvallieres' contribution to literature while reminding us of the enduring power that art holds over our collective imagination.
