EDITORS COMMENTS
Encore mes créanciers, toujours...," or "Still my creditors, always..." is a poignant and satirical lithograph by the renowned 19th century French artist Honore Daumier. This powerful work of art, created in the mid-1800s, captures the frustration and despair of a man as he laments the constant presence of his creditors. Daumier masterfully employs the medium of lithography to convey the depth of emotion and the raw reality of the human condition. The man in the print, dressed in the fashion of the time, stands tall and proud, yet his expression is one of deep concern and sadness. He clutches a stack of banknotes in one hand, while the other hand rests on his hip, holding a top hat as if to shield himself from the intrusion of the creditors. The title of the print, "Encore mes créanciers, toujours...," emphasizes the man's sense of exhaustion and resignation. The repetition of the phrase "encore mes créanciers," or "still my creditors," underscores the never-ending cycle of debt and financial struggle that the man faces. The print is a testament to Daumier's skill as a caricaturist and his ability to capture the nuances of human emotion. The black and white palette adds to the somber mood, while the man's shocked and upset expression adds a sense of humor and levity to the piece. "Encore mes créanciers, toujours..." is a valuable addition to any art collection, particularly those with a focus on 19th century art, finance, or satire. This print is a reminder of the universal struggles of debt and the human spirit's ability to endure, even in the face of adversity. This print is part of the rich artistic heritage of France and is a must-see for anyone visiting the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. or any other prestigious art center or gallery. It is a timeless piece that continues to resonate with audiences today, providing a glimpse into the past while offering insights into the human condition.
