Calfs Head and Ox Tongue, c. 1882
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a thought-provoking oil painting created by the talented Gustave Caillebotte during the 19th century. This artwork, displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago, delves into the concept of butchery and its connection to Victorian society. In this striking still life composition, Caillebotte skillfully captures the somber atmosphere of a butcher's shop in France. The beheaded calf's head and ox tongue hang from hooks in a window display, symbolizing both sustenance and death. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he meticulously portrays every aspect of this profession - from the meat itself to the tools used for decapitation. While some may find this depiction unsettling or even distressing due to its association with animal abuse, it serves as a reminder of our complex relationship with food production throughout history. Caillebotte invites viewers to reflect upon their own consumption habits and raises questions about societal values surrounding occupation and charity. Through his masterful brushstrokes and use of light, Caillebotte not only showcases his artistic prowess but also sheds light on an essential part of French heritage art: traditional trades like butchery that were prevalent during that era. "Calfs Head and Ox Tongue" stands as an enduring testament to Gustave Caillebotte's ability to capture profound moments within everyday settings while provoking contemplation on themes such as life, death, occupation
