Small erudite and insolent reader, with two voices by Bruno De Saint Riquier & Antoine Marneur, around some pictorial and cultural literary digressions. Where we are told about Chateaubriand, death and travels that are not without danger. Where we are told about culture, which can be in danger. And painting in all this, you say? And Girodet? Girodet was a painter who also put himself in danger by wanting to become a poet. Painting or literature? This is the question that this Hamlet of the romantic brush regularly posed itself between the easel and the writing desk!
