EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an amateur engraving from the "Caricatures-Singeries" collection, created by the French School in the second half of the 19th century. The print, which measures 41.5x27.5 cm, depicts a comical scene filled with anthropomorphic animals and laughable characters. The engraving was produced using impressive lithography techniques by Pellerin et Cie, a renowned supplier to S. M. L Imperatrice (Her Imperial Majesty). Plate number 158 captures the attention to detail and skillful execution of this artwork. Intriguing elements such as an apron-wearing monkey wearing glasses and an astronomical bezel instrument add depth to this whimsical composition. The artist's clever use of optical illusions creates a sense of derision and mockery towards human behavior. Through this piece, we are invited to observe society through a satirical lens while also appreciating the technical knowledge required for such intricate engravings. The French writing on the print further immerses us in its cultural context. This print is part of a private collection and has been preserved over time, allowing us to appreciate Jean Duvallon's artistic vision without any copyright restrictions. Its historical significance makes it not only aesthetically pleasing but also an invaluable artifact that offers insight into France's artistic heritage during the 19th century.
