Est-il permis de revenir de Bercy dans un état pareil..
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Is it allowed to return from Bercy in such a state...) is a poignant and humorous lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, created in 1843. This image, titled "Les Canotiers parisiens" (The Parisian Canoeists), was published in the satirical weekly magazine Le Charivari. The print depicts a heated argument between a man, apparently drunk, and his distressed wife. The man, with a bottle in hand, is defending his love for water, while his wife laments their current situation. The husband, with a carefree attitude, asks, "Eh ben quoi?...puisque j'aime l'eau!" (Well, what's wrong?...just because I love water!...), to which his wife responds with despair, "To return from Bercy in such a state...a respectable man...my God how unhappy I am!" The image, with its intricate details and expressive gestures, captures the essence of domestic life and the complexities of marriage. The use of satire and parody in the print adds an element of humor, making it a fascinating glimpse into the social and cultural norms of the 19th century. This lithograph is a valuable addition to the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and a testament to Honore Daumier's artistic genius. The print, with its timeless themes and intriguing narrative, continues to resonate with audiences and remains an important piece of heritage art.
