EDITORS COMMENTS
Une Émeute," or "An Uprising," is a powerful and humorous lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, created in 1845. This image is part of Daumier's series "Professeurs et Moutards," or "Teachers and Mudslingers." The print depicts a chaotic scene in a schoolroom, where a group of boys, with shocked expressions and outstretched hands, are rioting in front of their teacher. The teacher, with a look of disbelief and exasperation, tries to maintain order while holding onto her wig, which is being pulled off by one of the boys. The title "Une Émeute" highlights the theme of uprising and rebellion, which was a common topic in Daumier's satirical works. The artist masterfully captures the energy and chaos of the moment, while also poking fun at the traditional role of the teacher and the challenges of maintaining order in the classroom. This print is a testament to Daumier's exceptional skill as a cartoonist and his ability to capture the human condition with wit and humor. The use of black and white adds to the timeless quality of the image, making it a beloved piece of 19th-century art and a must-have for any collection focusing on education, satire, or French art. This lithograph is now part of the impressive collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world. The print's rich heritage and historical significance make it a valuable addition to the museum's extensive collection of art and artifacts.
