EDITORS COMMENTS
Paul Gavarni's enchanting illustration, titled "The Twelve Months: December, 1866," captures the essence of winter's magic and the simple joys of rural life. The full-length portrait of a chevallier, or country gentleman, named Sulpice Guillaume, is depicted in a frozen landscape, enjoying the pastime of ice skating on a serene river. Dressed in fashionable apparel of the 19th century, the man wears a hat adorned with a feather, a scarf draped around his neck, and his arms are folded across his chest, evoking a sense of contentment and amusement. The artist's masterful use of ink on paper and pencil drawing techniques brings the scene to life, with intricate details of the man's clothing, the texture of the ice, and the surrounding geographical features. The image is a beautiful representation of the realist and regionalist artistic movements of the time, providing a glimpse into the heritage and social class of rural France during the 1860s. The Twelve Months series by Paul Gavarni is a beloved collection of illustrations, each capturing the unique charm of a different month and season, making it a cherished addition to any art or history collection.
