EDITORS COMMENTS
Comment, c'est dans cette cave que... (How it is in this cellar) is a captivating lithograph by the renowned 19th century French artist, Honore Daumier. This masterpiece, created in the mid-1800s, is a testament to Daumier's exceptional skill as a caricaturist and his keen observation of human nature. The image depicts a group of men, dressed in the fashion of the era, gathered around the entrance of a cellar. The architectural features of the building are intricately detailed, with balconies and balcony rails adorning the facade. The use of grey and monochrome tones adds to the antiquated and historic feel of the scene. The title of the work, "Le Salon de 1857" (The Salon of 1857), suggests that this may be a commentary on the art world of the time. The men in the image appear to be looking intently at something within the cellar, perhaps an art exhibition or gallery. The figure in the foreground, with a quizzical expression, seems to be deep in thought, possibly pondering the artistic merit of what lies before him. The humour and parody evident in Daumier's work are evident in the exaggerated forms and expressions of the figures. The lettering and illustrative style add to the overall effect, making this a unique and intriguing piece of 19th century art. This lithograph is a valuable addition to any art collection, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of France. It is a must-have for anyone with an interest in historic art, architecture, or the human condition.
