EDITORS COMMENTS
Passager ayant payé... pour se rendre à New-York" (A Passenger Having Paid... for Going to New York), is a captivating lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier. Created in the 19th century, this masterpiece showcases the humor and satire that Daumier is known for. In this image, we see a passenger, possibly of Scottish descent, eagerly waiting for the ship, the Leviathan, to be launched. The man's expression is filled with excitement and anticipation as he clutches his ticket in hand. The background is a bustling scene of activity, with workers preparing the paddle steamer for departure. Daumier's use of caricature and parody is evident in the exaggerated features of the passengers and workers in the background. The man's hat, with its distinctive tartan pattern, adds to the suggestion of Scottish origin. The title of the piece, "Passager ayant payé... pour se rendre à New-York," reinforces the idea of the journey and the anticipation of a new beginning. This lithograph is a testament to the artistic heritage of the 19th century, showcasing the beauty and humor of the era. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, with its depiction of transportation by steamship and the excitement of embarking on a journey to a new land. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. is fortunate to have this piece in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the artistic genius of Honore Daumier and the historical significance of this image. Whether you are a fan of Daumier's work, or simply interested in the history of transportation, this lithograph is a must-see.
