EDITORS COMMENTS
Après la pompe à sang, la pompe à or" (After the blood pump, the gold pump), a captivating 1871 masterpiece by Honore Daumier, offers a thought-provoking allegory on the human condition. This monochrome print, created using the Gillotype process on newsprint, is a testament to the artistic ingenuity of the 19th century. The image depicts a man, dressed in tattered clothes, sitting on a wooden stool, his face etched with exhaustion. Behind him, a large, ornate gold pump stands tall, symbolizing the allure and power of wealth. The man, having drained a "blood pump" earlier, now yearns for the golden rewards. This caricature, filled with humour and social commentary, highlights the human tendency towards greed and the relentless pursuit of wealth. The print, a part of the French artistic school, is a brilliant example of Daumier's mastery over the medium of caricature. The contrast between the worn-out man and the grandiose gold pump serves as a stark reminder of the disproportionate value society places on wealth and material possessions. This engraving, with its intricate lettering and illustrations, is a must-see for anyone interested in European art and culture. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., is proud to exhibit this historic piece, which continues to resonate with audiences today due to its timeless themes and thought-provoking commentary. The image, reminiscent of an old map, transports viewers back to a bygone era, inviting them to reflect on the enduring human desire for wealth and the consequences of such pursuits. Honore Daumier's "Après la pompe à sang, la pompe à or" is a captivating work of art that continues to inspire and provoke thought, making it an essential addition to any art centre or gallery collection.
