Honoré de Balzac's monumental work, "The Human Comedy," comprises 91 works, detailing French society in the first half of the 19th century. All social and professional types, characters, vices, and virtues of his contemporaries are reflected in this "encyclopedia" of human passions. "Gobseck" and "Eugénie Grandet" are part of the "Etudes on Morals" section and are dedicated to characters obsessed with gold. The characters' stinginess and greed, luxury and extravagance, and dependence on the opinions of society clash with other character traits: selflessness, nobility, and devotion. The novella "Gobseck" is illustrated by Rina Sinelnikova, and the novel "Eugénie Grandet" features illustrations by Grigory Filippovsky.
