Voyons, général... 19th century
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, created in the mid-19th century. This intriguing piece, filled with wit and humor, depicts a stern-faced general receiving an unexpected request from an unseen speaker. The title of the work, which translates to "Let's see, general..." in English, sets the stage for a playful exchange. Daumier masterfully employs the medium of lithography to bring this satirical scene to life. The image, with its high contrast and intricate details, transports us back to the 19th century. The general, dressed in full military regalia, stands rigidly with a stern expression, his arms crossed over his chest. His demeanor suggests a no-nonsense attitude, but the speaker's words, hinted at in the title, challenge his authority. The speaker, hidden from view, makes a lighthearted threat, promising to bring winter cheer to St. Petersburg if the general fails to comply. The use of the word "gay" in this context, which originally meant "happy" or "joyful," adds to the playful tone of the piece. The general's response is not shown, leaving the outcome of this exchange open to interpretation. This caricature, with its clever use of humor and satire, offers a glimpse into the social and political climate of 19th century France. It is a testament to Daumier's artistic prowess and his ability to capture the essence of human interaction in a single image. This print, now part of the collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., continues to delight and intrigue viewers, inviting us to ponder the power dynamics and whimsical exchanges that shaped history.
