Description
About Victor Hugo:
Victor Hugo began publishing at a young age and quickly rose to literary greatness. At 20, he earned a royal pension from King Louis XVIII. Hugo’s works, including Les Misérables and The Hunchback of Notre Dame, remain timeless literary masterpieces.
His influence helped spark the historical preservation movement in France. Notre Dame Cathedral owes much of its current glory to Hugo’s legacy. Today, Hugo is honored at the Panthéon in Paris alongside France’s greatest minds.
About the Pen:
This special Montblanc Writers Edition pen celebrates the 1831 release of Notre Dame de Paris. The pen’s Gothic design pays tribute to the architecture of Notre Dame Cathedral, with a rose window rosette, bell-shaped clip end, and trefoil frieze.
A single chain link near the base symbolizes Quasimodo’s confinement. Yellow lacquer below the cap represents the prison passport of Jean Valjean. The inscription from Les Contemplations reads: “Chaque homme dans sa nuit s’en va vers sa lumière.”
(“Every man in his night goes to his light.”)
A highly detailed and symbolic tribute, this limited edition pen honors Victor Hugo’s enduring cultural and literary impact. It is ideal for collectors, enthusiasts of French literature, and aspiring writers alike.
