This bilingual commemorative edition of the bicentenary of Charles Baudelaire's birth presents a selection of 58 poems illustrated by Louis Joos. The reader will find the original poems in French at the end of the book. For Baudelaire, art and art criticism were as important as his poetry, which justifies this illustrated edition. The beauty of his verses is reflected in the evocative illustrations that accompany them, using watercolor, India ink and pastel to translate the words, rhymes, concepts and everyday life, love, hate, pleasure and spleen.
Charles-Pierre Baudelaire was a French poet, essayist, translator and art critic. His poems are described as exhibiting mastery of rhythm and rhyme, containing an exoticism inherited from the Romantics, and are based on observations of real life.
