EDITORS COMMENTS
Honore Daumier's lithograph "Ventre affamé n'a pas d'oreilles" (A hungry belly has no ears), created in 1840, is a poignant and humorous commentary on the struggles of street performers during the 19th century. The image depicts a man and a woman, both dressed in tattered clothing, huddled around a small fiddle and a tambourine. The man, with a hungry and desperate expression on his face, plays the fiddle, while the woman, with a resigned look, shakes the tambourine. The title of the work is a reference to a French proverb, emphasizing the idea that a person in a state of extreme hunger pays no heed to anything but their own survival. Daumier, a renowned French artist and caricaturist, masterfully captures the raw emotions and the harsh realities of life for these street musicians. The image is a powerful commentary on the human condition, as well as a satirical critique of society's indifference to the struggles of the working class. The use of the violin and the tambourine as musical instruments adds an element of melancholy and sadness to the scene, while the contrast between the stark black and white tones highlights the starkness of their situation. The image is a testament to Daumier's skill as a master of satire and social commentary. It is a valuable addition to the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of France during the 19th century.
