Victor Hugo was a brilliant writer and a prolific painter, with a characteristic use of brown ink washes and deep smoky shadows. The title is from Horace (Satires, I.2) and carries an erotic charge in the original, which matches the nude silhouette that can be perceived in this nineteenth-century romantic abstraction. Part of the permanent collection of the Bibliothèque nationale de France, Paris.

Format & Paper: Each print is produced as a museum-quality Giclée print on Hahnemühle German Etching, a warm, textured cotton paper that honours the depth and tonal richness of each work.
