EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back to the year 1900, where a young cook finds great amusement in teasing a child who has been pinched by a mischievous lobster. The drawing, skillfully crafted by Chocarne-Moreau, captures the essence of childhood innocence and playfulness. The scene unfolds in what appears to be a bustling kitchen or perhaps a seaside restaurant. The young cook, with his apron tied tightly around his waist, stands tall beside an enormous pot brimming with lobsters. His mischievous grin suggests that he takes great pleasure in witnessing the unfortunate predicament of the child before him. Meanwhile, the poor kid looks both startled and pained as he clutches his finger that has fallen victim to the lobster's sharp claws. His wide-eyed expression evokes sympathy from viewers while also highlighting the comical nature of this moment. Chocarne-Moreau masterfully captures not only the physical details but also manages to convey emotions through his strokes on paper. This drawing serves as a reminder of how laughter can often arise from unexpected situations even during moments of discomfort or pain. Leonard de Selva's photograph perfectly preserves this timeless artwork for us to appreciate today. It allows us to reflect upon our own childhood memories and reminds us that humor can be found even in life's most challenging moments.
