JEAN ARTHUR RIMBAUD

(1854 - 1891)

POET

         

 

Rimbaud's break with Verlaine led the poet to self-imposed exile in Aden, where he became fascinated with the youth

Djami, his constant companion. Illness brought Rimbaud back to France to suffer a lingering and painful death.

 

Special 'Rimbaud' postmark, Attigny, France, 25 November 1991.
