"Sous-mains: Tache et Essais de Lavis; et Lignes Bleues" is a collection of visual artworks by the renowned French writer and artist Victor Hugo. Best known for his literary masterpieces such as "Les Misérables" and "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame," Hugo was also an accomplished artist who produced a substantial body of drawings and sketches. This particular collection, whose title translates to "Underhands: Blot and Wash Trials; and Blue Lines," features a series of experimental ink washes and drawings that reflect Hugo's interest in the interplay of chance and control in artistic creation.

The works in "Sous-mains" are characterized by their abstract and often enigmatic quality, showcasing Hugo's innovative techniques that involved the use of blots, stains, and free-form lines. These pieces were not intended for public exhibition during his lifetime; rather, they were personal explorations of form and texture that often served as a visual counterpart to his literary ideas. The title itself suggests a certain informality and spontaneity, as "sous-mains" can refer to the protective sheets placed under a piece of writing or drawing to prevent smudging, indicating that these works may have originated as by-products of Hugo's writing process.

Victor Hugo's artistic output has gained significant scholarly attention, with "Sous-mains" being an important part of his oeuvre that provides insight into his creative process and his willingness to embrace accidental effects in his visual art. The collection is an example of how Hugo's artistic practices paralleled the broader Romantic movement's fascination with the subconscious and the forces of nature, as well as the later Surrealist movement's emphasis on automatism and the liberation of the psyche.

The "Sous-mains" collection remains an intriguing aspect of Hugo's artistic legacy, offering a window into the mind of one of the 19th century's most multifaceted figures. It continues to be studied by art historians and literary scholars alike, who seek to understand the full breadth of Hugo's talents and the ways in which his visual art complements and contrasts with his written work.
