🎨 Who was Molière?

Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, known as Molière (1622–1673), is one of the greatest classical French authors. Founder of the Troupe de Monsieur, which became the Troupe du Roi, he revolutionized comedy by criticizing social flaws with sharp humor and a finely crafted language. His plays — Le Misanthrope, Tartuffe, L’Avare, Le Bourgeois gentilhomme, etc. — remain pillars of the theatrical repertoire, revealing a man of the theater as skilled at acting as at writing.

His portrait symbolizes the spirit of the Grand Siècle: elegance, spirit of satire, and love of spectacle.
