Pierre Jules Th ophile Gautier (1811-1872) was a French poet, dramatist, novelist, journalist, and literary critic.
This also gave him the opportunity for foreign travel and meeting many influential contacts in high society and in the world of the arts, which inspired many of his writings including Voyage en Espagne (1843), Tr sors d\'Art de la Russie (1858),.
He began writing poetry as early as 1826 but the majority of his life was spent as a contributor to various journals, mainly for La Presse.
