EDITORS COMMENTS
by Honore Daumier: A Young Boy's Disappointment and Mischief This image, titled "Estancelin, 1849," is a masterpiece by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier. The print, part of the series "Les Representans Representes" and published in the satirical weekly Le Charivari on August 25, 1849, depicts a young boy named Estancelin, deeply engrossed in his thoughts. The scene unfolds in a classroom setting, where Estancelin is seen sitting at a wooden desk, his head bowed, and his eyes filled with disappointment. The government's failure to distribute prizes before the parliamentary recess had left him crestfallen, as he was confident of winning the growth prize. However, it's not just Estancelin's sizeable stature that sets him apart. His fidgety and boisterous demeanor, evident from the mischievous glint in his eyes and the disarray around him, is a cause for concern. The artist captures the essence of youthful exuberance, but also underscores the importance of societal decorum. The print serves as a reminder of the duality of childhood - the excitement and anticipation, as well as the need for discipline and restraint. The artist's keen observation and satirical wit make "Estancelin, 1849" a timeless piece that continues to resonate with viewers.
