Eh! Ben, vila du propre!... on dit...
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Well, it's clean!...it was said) is a captivating lithograph created by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier in the 19th century. This monochrome masterpiece, filled with humour and satire, depicts two divorced women, elegantly dressed and adorned with parasols, engaged in a lively discussion. Their animated conversation, suggested by their gestures and facial expressions, is a common sight in the bustling streets of France during that era. The women's contrasting reactions to the cleanliness of their surroundings add an intriguing layer to the scene. One woman, with a smirk on her face, points to an object and exclaims "Eh! Ben, vila du propre!" (Well, it's clean!), while the other, with a scornful look, retorts "On dit" (it was said). The use of lettering in the image adds to its overall charm and enhances the narrative. This caricature, with its grey tones and intricate details, is a testament to Daumier's exceptional artistic skills. It is a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of women during the 19th century and the societal norms of that time. The image, now a part of the rich artistic heritage, continues to intrigue and engage viewers, making it a must-see for anyone visiting an art centre or gallery. Honore Daumier, a master of the caricature and satirical arts, created this work during the nineteenth century, a time when the medium was gaining popularity in France. This lithograph, with its wit and insight, is a valuable addition to any collection of historic art and a reminder of the power of art to capture and preserve the essence of a time and place.
