Welcome to the New Gallery! The pictures contained herein are arranged
in chronological order, which is to say, in the order in which what they depict happens in Les
Misérables, and are grouped under the five books. Pictures are taken from sources
that are long out of print, and, I think, long out of copyright. Artist's names where available (and legible)
are provided in the descriptions.
Note: with regard to the T H R E E broken links: one
picture is missing entirely; two are half-images that need replacing, which are not technically broken links but they
are definitely not good pictures.
Book covers almost invariably feature one thing:
Valjean and the young Cosette. Occasionally you can find some where
convict Valjean is running or hiding from Javert, but not as often.
Since this scene occurs so often in covers and there's too dang many of
them in the regular gallery, the book covers are now in their own
section. Those book covers already put into the Gallery have been
removed and put in this section.
- Run away! In which Cosette is rescued by Benjamin Franklin while an angry Bill Sykes looks on. Cover of yet another children's adaption by someone who doesn't know what the hell century this takes place in.
- Valjean leading Cosette away from the inn I don't know why Cosette is blonde on the cover but dark haired inside. No illustrator named.

During the Depression, a minister named Solomon Cleaver (from Winnipeg) worked with poor and homeless people, and he often told them the story of Les Misérables, probably without the Waterloo portions, among others. He did a good job of it, and was convinced to write his telling down and published. This version is illustrated with stills from a movie version, possible the Baur one. (information from Lindsay)
- Gavroche at the barricade, still alive for some reason From a French language children's book all about Gavroche (and bits of Marius's story, for some reason). By Brient.

This is a random collection of portraits of the characters. The
goal is to get one of each character, not to have a set of any particular artist.
Anyone who owns the Lynd Ward illustrated volumes (either the single book or the two volume set)
knows that every single chapter has at least one illustration, if not two. Done in a beautiful 30's style, the characters
are all well realized and the scenes are well blocked. There's so darned many of them that it will take forever to put them
in order in with the rest of the illos, so until I have that much time on my hands, I'm putting them in their own side wing here for
the meantime. I only have the first two books, Fantine and Cosette, coded. Others will be added as they get done.

T I T L E P A G E S
Cover Page
by Mead Schaeffer. I would put this somewhere else,
but I have no idea what this is supposed to represent. I was thinking of having a contest to "Name the
Soldiers!" but I realized that the only possible names for them are Vladimir and Estragon in the new
production of "Waiting for Javert." Speculation is that between acts, the lamppost will sprout leaves.
The Convict and the Prostitute
by Lix; these are frontspieces for one edition; the number and chapter title on the post changes for each one, but the
picture remains the same.
Galejslaven which literally
translated means "Galley Slave." Frontspiece to an 1898 Danish edition illustrated by Lewis Moe. I decided to put it here rather than put the Valjean in the
sewer pic farther down the list.
B O O K O N E : F A N T I N E
- Fantine frontspiece
by Lewis Moe.
- M. Charles François Bienvenu Myriel, not Benjamin Franklin. By Jeanniot
- The Episcopal Castle by Scott; this is where the Bishop used to live, till he vacated it for:
- M. Myriel's House by I'm not sure, there are two signatures (Scott on the left, Brion on the right)
- M. Myriel's Chambers by Scott
- M. Myriel and the Hospital Director by Jeanniot
- The Bishop visited by Napoleon by Lewis Moe.
- The Bishop visits Senez by Jeanniot
- The Bishop and Madame Magloire by Jeanniot
- The guy from the New Yorker brushing off the guy from "Day of the Jackal" No, not really. From the "Works Corresponding to Words" chapter (Fantine IV), probably of the rich guy, M. Geborand, after the Bishop's sermon persuades him to give alms to the poor
- The bishop riding on his donkey from a Russian edition. Painting by some name I can't translate (it's on the bottom of the pic... in Russian, of course....)
- A just man by Lix (these are chapter frontspieces, also)
- He blessed and was blessed in return by Vérité. From a French language study guide for Les Misérables from the 1920's. It's the coolest book in my collection. Half of it is a very very short, proto-Cliff's Notes summary of Les Misérables, the rest is study questions about the story, vocabulary lists, and a glossary of terms. Best $15 I ever spent on a textbook!
- The comforter by Bayard
- The Bishop in the fields by Jeanniot
- The Bishop in his garden by Jeanniot
- M. Myriel's garden by Scott
- The strange horseman from Cravatte by Jeanniot

- "Your blessing," said the Bishop.... by Jeanniot (a mirror image of the above picture, although the signature reads right. This happens a lot, too. I have several of these, but this is the only one I'm uploading, as an example. Have to save some room for other people on the server, after all....)

- The Stranger in the Croix-de-Colbas by Jeanniot
- Jean Valjean's attempted fine dining experience by unknown, from yet another Russian (2002) edition
- Valjean hasn't yet grasped the "walk softly" part of carrying a big stick by Charles Keeping (1976 British Folio Society edition). The surreal, creepy quality of these pics reminds me of Hugo's own art style. Either that or he's a friend of Neil Gaiman's.
- Valjean on the outside, looking in by Lewis Moe.
- Turned away from Russian edition. No room at the inn, one supposes....
- Valjean gets 86'ed these are from a young adult edition (for which read: bowdlerized) and these pics are about as good as the book, apparently....

- "Come in sir, for you are weary..." by Gotting
- "See here! My name is Jean Valjean." by A. Gladys Peck. These are from a children's abridged edition called New Pocket Classics. The illustrations are circa 1915; notice how the style is much like that found in another book of the early 1900's, The Wizard Of Oz.
- The bishop said the blessing, and then.... by Vérité
- The Bishop and the Convict by Lix
- He ate with frightful voracity by Jeanniot
- L'homme se mit à manger avidement which means basically the same as "he ate with frightful voracity". No artist listed.

- still eating.... What is this, My Dinner With André? Get on with the story!

- Valjean's Sad Little Family by Monod.

- Jean Valjean steals a loaf of bread
- "No, we said steal some dough, not some dough! D'oh!" From Los Miserables, the Spanish-language Classics Illustrated version. By Eduardo C. Periera
- "You in a heap o' trouble now, boy..." From Los Miserables, the Spanish-language Classics Illustrated version. By Eduardo C. Periera
- Man Overboard! by Jeanniot
- The Two Caryatides (whatever the heck that means) by Bayard (I looked it up in my thesaurus; it's a synonym for a very strong man, like Atlas and Hercules. I feel so literate now.)
- He wore the number 24,601 by Vérité

- What prison does to a guy by Charles Keeping (1976 British Folio Society edition).

- Jean Valjean... working hard, or hardly working? from yet another Russian language book.
- The school for the chain-gang, by Jeanniot
- At the Distillery at Grasse by Jeanniot (I'm beginning to think that Jeanniot wasn't so much an illustrator as a storyboarder.)
- "It says here you can scale walls like Spiderman. Is that true?" Valjean having to show his passport every darn place he goes. By Monod.
- The man awakened by Bayard
- Jean Valjean Awakens by Jeanniot
- Jean Valjean stood in the window.... by Flameng

- Jean Valjean s'arrêta en face du lit (trans: Jean Valjean stopped before the bed). No artist listed.
- Jean Valjean was standing motionless and terrified by Jeanniot
- Jean Valjean's Terrible Temptation, another popular scene for illustration, apparently.... By Bayard
- Jean Valjean leaps over the Garden Wall by Jeanniot
- A strange, fierce group appeared on the threshold by Mead Schaeffer
- "My friend," the Bishop continued, "before you go, take your candlesticks." by Arthur A. Dixon (taken from a "Collins' Illustrated Pocket Classics," printed in Great Britain)
- Voici vos chandeliers... Self explanatory. No artist listed.
- "You wouldn't have anything lighter and less unwieldy, would you?" or, Claude Frollo gives Anthony Hopkins a parting gift, by Sergio Martinez for a version ofthe book "adapted for sale in Christian bookstores." In other words, bowdlerized up the yin yang. Apparently the original isn't Christian enough...
- Broken Link! "I gave you these silver candlesticks also"
