Tiens...Je ne te reconnaissais pas... 1848
EDITORS COMMENTS
(I don't recognize you...What moustaches!), is a captivating lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier. Created in 1848, this masterpiece is a part of Daumier's series "Les Parisiens," specifically plate 1. The image showcases two men in full-length apparel, dressed in the fashion of the nineteenth century. The first man, with a surprised expression, exclaims, "Goodness...I didn't recognize you...what moustaches!" The second man, proudly sporting a new corporal's uniform and an impressive moustache, responds, "It's necessary...I've been made a Corporal..." Daumier's use of satire and parody is evident in this cartoon-like image. The men's exaggerated facial expressions, the first man's wide-eyed astonishment, and the second man's smug satisfaction, add a touch of humor to the scene. The men's clothing, from their high collars to their top hats, further emphasizes the time period and the social class of the subjects. This lithograph, now housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is a testament to Daumier's artistic talent and his ability to capture the essence of everyday life in France during the nineteenth century. The contrast between the two men, their reactions, and their facial hair, make for an intriguing and visually engaging piece of art that continues to captivate viewers even today. Honore Daumier's "Tiens...Je ne te reconnaissais pas... 1848" is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a humorous and insightful look into the lives of ordinary people during a pivotal time in French history.
