EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Series Croquis d expressions, the bump, plate 26" by Honore Daumier takes us back to 19th-century France. The image showcases a scene filled with emotion and humor, as a young child grimaces in pain while his mother tries to alleviate his discomfort. Daumier's incredible talent for capturing human physiognomy is on full display here. The child's mouth is wide open in agony, perfectly illustrating the pain caused by an unseen bump. Meanwhile, the mother looks on with concern and determination, attempting to make her son feel better. The cartoon-like quality of this illustration adds an element of satire and caricature to the scene. It serves as a commentary on both parental love and our desire for quick remedies when faced with physical discomforts. Displayed at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, this lithograph from Le Charivari newspaper was originally published on September 4th, 1838. Its timeless appeal lies in its ability to evoke empathy and amusement simultaneously. Whether you're drawn to its artistic technique or intrigued by its humorous narrative, this print offers a glimpse into French society during Daumier's time. It reminds us that even centuries later, we can still find joy in satirical art that captures universal human experiences like pain and parental care.
