EDITORS COMMENTS
U V: Urubu, uniform, vampire, violin captures the whimsical essence of 19th-century French art. This print is part of the renowned 'ABC Comic Alphabet' series published by A. Capendu in Paris around 1890. Measuring 32x25.5 cm and printed on durable canvas, it showcases English chromolithographs with accompanying texts in French. The artwork itself is a delightful fusion of various elements starting with 'U V. ' The letter U represents an Urubu, a type of vulture found in South America known for its distinctive appearance and soaring flight. Next to it stands a figure donning a crisp uniform, symbolizing authority and order. However, the composition takes an unexpected turn as we encounter a mischievous vampire lurking nearby. With his fangs bared and cape billowing dramatically, he adds an element of dark fantasy to this otherwise lighthearted scene. Completing this eclectic mix is the inclusion of a violin—a classic instrument associated with elegance and harmony—held by another character within the frame. Its presence adds depth to the narrative while hinting at artistic pursuits or perhaps even musical mischief. This lithograph exemplifies Jean Duvallon's talent for creating visually engaging illustrations that captivate viewers across generations. As part of Fine Art Finder's collection, this print offers both historical significance and aesthetic pleasure.
