Cabriolet, Monsieur, Cabriolet... 19th Century
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, created in the mid-19th century. This intriguing artwork, titled "Cabriolet la M'sieu, la M'sieu... I don't just travel on foot? (Carriage monsieur!)", showcases Daumier's exceptional talent for caricature and satire. The image depicts a scene of a rainy day on a country road, where a cab driver, or "cabbie," stands next to his horse-drawn carriage, eagerly calling out to potential passengers. The title of the piece, "I don't just travel on foot?", highlights the cabbie's pride in his profession and his belief that walking is an inferior mode of transportation. The cabbie's expression is full of confidence and determination, as he holds a whip in one hand and a sign in the other, advertising his services. The passengers in the background, huddled under umbrellas and trudging through the rain, appear to be considering the cabbie's offer, their faces expressing a mix of relief and amusement at the situation. The artwork is a testament to the social class distinctions of the time, with the cabbie representing the working class and the passengers, dressed in their finery, representing the upper class. The use of humor and satire in the piece adds to its appeal and makes it a fascinating glimpse into the past. This lithograph is a must-see for anyone interested in 19th-century art, caricature, or social commentary. It is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery and is sure to spark lively conversation and debate among viewers. Whether you are a fan of Daumier's work or a newcomer to his art, "Cabriolet, M'sieur, Cabriolet... I don't just travel on foot? (Carriage monsieur!)" is a captivating and thought-provoking piece that is sure to leave a lasting impression.
