Plus souvent que tu m'attraperas encore à satisfaire ta fantasie...
EDITORS COMMENTS
(More often than you'll catch me satisfying your fantasy...) is a poignant and humorous lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, created in 1847. This image is titled "From Les Bons bourgeois, no. 43" and is part of Daumier's extensive body of work that satirically portrays the daily lives of the middle class. In this print, we see a disgruntled husband and wife on a picnic in the countryside. The husband, with a heavy sigh and a furrowed brow, carries a picnic basket on his back, while his wife, with an expectant look on her face, gazes longingly at the grassy landscape. The caption above the scene reads, "You're always getting me to satisfy your fantasy of dining on the grass..." The husband laments, "we've been walking for two hours now and we haven't yet found any grass yet...if I'd known, I would have packed our large green rug at the bottom of the basket..." The image is a clever commentary on the expectations and disappointments of marriage and the lengths people go to please their partners. The use of humor and satire adds depth and complexity to the scene, making it a beloved piece of 19th-century art. This print is a testament to Daumier's ability to capture the human condition with wit and insight. The print is part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) and is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art and the social commentary of the 19th century. The print's timeless themes and the artist's masterful use of lithography make it a treasure of the art world.
