Summary "Émaux et Camées" by Théophile Gautier is a collection of poetry written in the late 19th century. The work reflects Gautier's artistic aesthetics, combining themes of beauty, art, and sensuality throughout various pieces. The poems explore seductive images and metaphors, invoking a rich interplay of emotions and visual art that captivate the reader. The opening of "Émaux et Camées" features a preface where the author expresses his intent to create art reminiscent of the classics while immersing himself in the beauty and isolation of creativity. Gautier draws parallels between his creative process and the works of great poets like Goethe, suggesting that art can flourish even amidst turmoil. Following this, the first poem introduces a theme of timeless beauty and desire, showcasing the allure of feminine forms and seductive imagery, setting the tone for the poems to come in this elegant collection.
