EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "La Chaine" from the famous novel "Histoire de Manon Lescaut et du chevalier Des Grieux" by French writer L'abbé Prévost. The engraving, created by Maurice Leloir in 1885, beautifully captures the essence of this literary masterpiece. In this scene, we see a young girl who embodies both strength and vulnerability. As a goalkeeper, she stands as a symbol of resilience and determination. However, her expression reveals traces of misery and hardship that life has bestowed upon her. The intricate details in the engraving highlight the girl's impoverished state. The worn-out clothes and somber surroundings evoke a sense of poverty prevalent during the 18th century in France. Yet amidst these challenging circumstances, there is an air of grace surrounding her. L'abbé Prévost's work delves into themes such as love, passion, and societal constraints. Through his vivid storytelling skills, he brings to life characters like La Chaine - an imaginary figure who represents both hope and despair. This print not only pays homage to L'abbé Prévost's literary genius but also serves as a reminder of the power that art holds in capturing human emotions and experiences across time periods. It invites us to reflect on our own lives while appreciating the rich cultural heritage left behind by talented artists like Maurice Leloir.
