EDITORS COMMENTS
Regardez, mais n'y touchez pas!" (Watch, but don't touch it!) is a captivating caricature by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, created in 1871. This monochrome masterpiece, with its intriguing title written in French, invites us to ponder the scene unfolding before us. Daumier, a master of satire and parody, expertly employs the medium of engraving on newsprint to depict a lively and humorous tableau. The image features a flag bearer proudly hoisting a large tricolor flag, while a group of men in various poses and expressions watch him intently. The title, written in bold lettering at the bottom, adds an element of intrigue and direction, as if to warn the onlookers not to interfere. This work of art is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of France during the 19th century. The use of Gillotype on newsprint adds to the authenticity and historical significance of the piece. The caricature's satirical nature invites interpretation, leaving viewers to ponder the meaning behind the scene and the intentions of the artist. Regardez, mais n'y touchez pas! is a must-see for any art enthusiast or history buff, and is a valuable addition to any collection or exhibition. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. is fortunate to have this work as part of its esteemed collection, allowing future generations to appreciate the wit and skill of Honore Daumier.
