HUGO VICTOR: (1802-1885) French novelist, poet and dramatist. A fine and exceptionally large vintage signed and inscribed sepia 18.5 x 24 photograph by Hugo, the engaging image depicting the writer seated in a three-quarter length pose on an ornately carved wooden chair, resting the side of his head on one raised hand. The edge of a carved wooden bookcase can be seen to the right of the image. Photograph by Walery of Paris and bearing their imprint to the lower border, c.1879. Signed and inscribed by Hugo in fountain pen ink to the lower photographer´s mount, ´A ma bonne Virginie Noel, Victor Hugo´. Signed photographs of Hugo of this size and quality are extremely rare and highly desirable. Some light overall age wear, a few chips to the edges and with a few tears to the upper edge of the mount, neatly repaired to a good standard. About VG
Virginie Noel was a maid in the service of Hugo and Juliette Drouet between 1877-79.
