Portrait De Famille
EDITORS COMMENTS
(circa 1901): An Ironically Titled Family Sketch This intriguing and thought-provoking sketch, titled "Portrait De Famille," from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, offers a poignant commentary on the passage of time and the complexities of family dynamics. The irony in the title becomes apparent as we observe a seated, elderly lady, engrossed in a book, and a portrait painting of a young woman, placed beside her. The elderly lady, with her wrinkled features and graying hair, embodies the wisdom and experience that comes with age. Her focused expression and the book in her hands suggest a deep engagement with the written word, perhaps a means of escape or solace. The presence of the portrait painting of a young woman, with her rosy cheeks and demure gaze, serves as a stark contrast to the reality of the elderly lady's current situation. The young woman in the painting appears to be looking down at her subject, as if in deep contemplation or admiration. However, her gaze seems to be directed towards the elderly lady, creating an intriguing connection between the two women. The painting's placement beside the elderly lady further emphasizes this connection, as if to suggest that the young woman in the painting is a part of her past or a reflection of her former self. The "Portrait De Famille" sketch, created by the renowned French caricaturist Auguste Charcot Huard for the album "Les Maitres de la Caricature" (Issue August), invites viewers to reflect on the irony of the title and the complexities of family and the passage of time. The image offers a poignant reminder that the family portrait is not always a representation of the present but a reflection of the past and the ever-changing nature of life.
