Abstract. This text is a part of bigger research of different premodernist characteristics in the works of Maupassant. It is focused over a part of picture images in the novel Bel Ami, interpreted as a game coding of dominant themes of the work and Maupassant’s works in general through the figure of pseudoekphrasis. The text presents our understanding for ekphrasis together with the reasons for choosing the term of pseudo-ekphrasis. We analyze pseudo-ekphrasis as a sign of modern thinking of mimetic technics, because it succeeded to present whole phantasm images as iconic. The text presents thematic analysis of the images of the character Walter collection in order to introduce the functions of technical figure on a semantic level in the narration.
