EDITORS COMMENTS
Caran d'Ache, the renowned French satirist and political cartoonist, is captured in this illustration as he immerses himself in the creative process of painting a portrait. Circa 1901, the artist, born as Emmanuel Poire in 1858, is seen in the midst of bringing a lady's likeness to life on his canvas. The image is a testament to his exceptional artistic skills and the dedication he brought to his craft. Caran d'Ache, a pseudonym he adopted, gained fame for his incisive wit and biting satire, often targeting political figures and societal norms of his time. However, this illustration offers a glimpse into another side of his artistic talent - his ability to capture the essence of a subject through the medium of oil painting. The portrait, which is believed to be a self-portrait, shows Caran d'Ache in deep concentration, his eyes fixed on the woman's face before him. The woman, with an enigmatic smile, seems to pose effortlessly for the artist. The setting, a cluttered studio filled with brushes, palettes, and half-finished canvases, adds to the authenticity of the scene. This evocative image is taken from 'Album des Maîtres de la Caricature,' a collection published by the French magazine 'Les Maitres de la Caricature' in October, issue of the same year. The illustration not only showcases Caran d'Ache's artistic prowess but also offers a glimpse into the world of a master satirist at work.
