Le Beau Narcisse,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, created in 1842, presents a humorous take on the ancient Greek myth of Narcissus. The image, part of Daumier's series "L'Histoire ancienne," showcases the handsome young man, lost in admiration of his own reflection in a mirror-like fountain. The title, "He was young and beautiful; with their sweet breaths, the zephirs caressed his contours full of attractions," sets the scene for this enchanting moment. Daumier masterfully captures the essence of Narcissus' vanity and self-absorption, a theme that was a common subject in his satirical work. The print, with its delicate shading and intricate detail, brings to life the lush greenery surrounding the figure, contrasting the stark nakedness of Narcissus. The artist's use of humour and parody is evident in the way Narcissus is depicted, with a mischievous grin playing on his lips as he gazes at his reflection. This print, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is a testament to Daumier's artistic prowess and his ability to breathe new life into classic mythology. The image invites us to reflect on the timeless themes of love, admiration, and the allure of beauty, while also reminding us of the dangers of vanity and self-obsession. With its rich heritage and enduring appeal, "Le Beau Narcisse" continues to captivate and inspire art lovers around the world.
