EDITORS COMMENTS
Esquisse pour la mairie du 20ème arrondissement: Les soins domestiques, l'instruction (Sketch for the 20th arrondissement city hall: Domestic services, instruction, 1884) is a captivating oil painting by the 19th century French artist Edouard Michel Lancon. The artwork, which measures approximately 25 x 32 cm, showcases a rural scene with a focus on the importance of domestic services, education, and work in the daily life of the 20th arrondissement of Paris. The painting is set indoors, with a farmhand and a woman engaged in their respective tasks. The man, dressed in traditional farm attire, is shown tending to agricultural tools and equipment, while the woman, clad in an apron, is seen instructing a young girl. The scene is further enriched by the presence of a blackboard on the wall, suggesting the importance of education in the community. The artwork is executed in oil on canvas, with a rich color palette that brings the rustic interior to life. The use of oil paint allows for a textured and detailed representation of the various objects and textures in the scene, from the rough wooden table to the smooth surface of the oil lamps. The painting is reminiscent of the Impressionist movement, with its focus on capturing the essence of everyday life and the natural world. The composition is also influenced by the artistic schools of the time, with an allegorical and allegiance to regionalism and rural life. Esquisse pour la mairie du 20ème arrondissement: Les soins domestiques, l'instruction is a valuable addition to any collection of French heritage art, and a testament to the importance of domestic services, education, and work in shaping the communities of Paris during the 19th century. The artwork is currently housed in the Musée du Petit Palais in Paris, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
