Imre Reiner's "Illustration to Voltaire, 'La Princesse de Babilone'" is a striking woodcut print featuring four figures in elaborate attire. The figures, likely from Voltaire's novel, "The Princess of Babylon", are depicted in a stylized fashion, with their bodies rendered in long, sweeping lines. The use of a single, rich red hue creates a sense of depth and drama, emphasizing the intricate details of their costumes. The print captures the essence of the 18th-century French novel, showcasing the artistic talent of Imre Reiner, a prominent Hungarian artist known for his work in the Art Deco style.
