EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration of Cosette, a beloved character from Victor Hugo's timeless masterpiece, Les Misérables. Created in 1862 by the talented artist Emile-Antoine Bayard (1837-1891), this artwork is a true gem that beautifully captures the essence of France's rich mythology and literary heritage. Rendered with delicate watercolours and ink on paper, Bayard masterfully brings to life the innocence and vulnerability of Cosette. Her angelic face radiates both hope and melancholy, reflecting the complex emotions woven throughout Hugo's epic tale. The fine details in this piece demonstrate Bayard's exceptional skill as a graphic artist, making it a remarkable example of book design during that era. Housed within a private collection, this rare find offers art enthusiasts an opportunity to own a piece of history. It serves as an allegory for love triumphing over adversity—a theme central to Les Misérables—while also paying homage to Victor Hugo's genius storytelling.
