Maurice Maeterlinck: Portrait by E. O. Hoppé
Maurice Maeterlinck appears in a photographic portrait with a facsimile signature beneath it. The source explicitly credits a camera portrait by E. O. Hoppé, London. Tonal modelling across the face and clothing gives the image a different character from an engraved author likeness. It accompanies Maeterlinck’s Death, placing a named photographer’s portrait at the threshold of the author’s reflections.
