EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in the life of one of France's most renowned men of letters, Voltaire. The assumed name of François Marie Arouet, Voltaire is depicted here getting out of bed at his home in Ferney, France. Painted by Jean Huber in the late 18th century, this oil on canvas artwork showcases the intimate interior setting where Voltaire spent his mornings. The composition beautifully portrays the writer as he rises from slumber, with sunlight streaming through a window and casting gentle shadows across the room. Dressed only in his undergarments, Voltaire appears both vulnerable and contemplative as he prepares to face another day filled with intellectual pursuits. Huber's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing not just the physical likeness but also conveying a sense of Voltaire's character and spirit. This genre painting belongs to Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection and stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of this influential figure. As we gaze upon this masterpiece from Granger Art on Demand, we are transported back to an era when literature flourished and ideas sparked revolutions. It serves as a reminder that even great minds like Voltaire had humble beginnings each morning before they set out to change the world with their words.
