EDITORS COMMENTS
Charles Maurand's captivating print, "Painting Experts," dates back to 1920, but the image itself was originally created in 1863. This intriguing piece is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of both the 19th and 20th centuries. The print, which is a engraving, showcases a group of art experts, critics, and connoisseurs gathered around a painting. The depicted scene is a parody of the serious and often pretentious world of art criticism and appreciation. The figures in the print are reminiscent of famous artists and critics of the time, including Honore Daumier and Jules Meynial. Daumier, a renowned French painter and printmaker, is depicted in the lower left corner, wearing a top hat and holding a cane. Meynial, a French art critic and journalist, is shown in the center, wearing a monocle and pointing at the painting with a smug expression. The painting itself, which is not visible in the print, is the subject of intense scrutiny and debate among the gathered experts. Maurand masterfully captures the humor and satire of the situation, as the men argue and gesticulate, each believing they have the definitive interpretation of the work. This print, with its intriguing history and cultural significance, is a must-have for any art enthusiast or collector. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a humorous and insightful look at the world of art criticism and appreciation during the 19th and early 20th centuries.
