Hein! comme il regarde les cervelas...,
EDITORS COMMENTS
or "Hey! How He Looks at Saveloys," is a captivating 19th-century lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier. This masterpiece, created in the heart of the 19th century, is a testament to Daumier's exceptional talent in capturing the essence of everyday life with a touch of humor and social commentary. The image portrays a butcher intently gazing at a plate of cervelas, or saveloys, a type of French sausage. The butcher's expression is one of pure delight and fascination, as if he has discovered a newfound appreciation for the simple pleasure of food. Surrounding him are various elements of a bustling butcher shop: a baby in a bassinet, a woman holding a child, and other figures engaged in their daily tasks. The black-and-white monochrome palette adds to the timeless quality of the piece, transporting us back to a simpler era. The use of lettering and intricate line work in the illustration further highlights Daumier's skill as a master draftsman. This caricature, with its humorous take on conjugal morals and the ordinary joys of life, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, particularly 19th-century French art. It is a fascinating glimpse into the world of Honore Daumier and the rich cultural heritage of France. This lithograph is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, offering a unique perspective on the human condition and the universal appeal of food. Whether you're a seasoned art enthusiast or just discovering the world of art, "Hein! comme il regarde les cervelas..." is sure to captivate and inspire you. This work is part of the extensive collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and is a testament to the enduring legacy of Honore Daumier as a master of the art world.
