Voyons, monsieur Réac... 1871
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Let's see, Mr. Reac... 1871) is a captivating monochrome print by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier. Created in the late 19th century, this allegorical masterpiece is a testament to Daumier's artistic brilliance and his ability to capture the essence of human nature through caricature and satire. The print depicts a man, identified as Monsieur Réac, seated at a table with a magnifying glass, intently examining a document. Surrounding him are various allegorical figures representing different aspects of French society and culture during the tumultuous year of 1871. To his left, a woman personifying France holds a broken crown and weeps, while to his right, a man representing the bourgeoisie smirks and counts his money. In the background, figures of war, famine, and revolution loom ominously. Daumier's use of Gillotype on newsprint adds to the print's antique charm and authenticity, transporting us back in time to the historic events of the period. The print is a powerful commentary on the state of France during this tumultuous time, with Daumier using his artistic skills to poke fun at the societal issues and political climate of the day. This print is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art and the cultural heritage of France. It is currently on display at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. Whether you're a fan of Daumier's work or simply interested in the artistic schools and movements of the 19th century, "Voyons, monsieur Réac... 1871" is a must-see addition to any art collection or gallery exhibition.
