Uprightness and Hypocrisy,
EDITORS COMMENTS
an intriguing illustration by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki from the Pocket Calendar of Gotting for the year 1794, offers a thought-provoking commentary on the complexities of human nature. The black and white etching depicts two men and a woman, each engaged in distinct actions that convey the contrasting themes of the title. In the foreground, a man, dressed in the fashion of the 18th century, carries a child on his back, his face expressing a genuine sense of compassion and care. The child, with a trusting gaze, clings to him, symbolizing innocence and purity. This scene represents "uprightness," as the man's actions align with his moral principles and demonstrate honorable behavior. In stark contrast, a second man, also dressed in the fashion of the time, hides his face with a handkerchief while gesturing dismissively towards the first man. His actions are deceitful and hypocritical, as he ignores the honesty and compassion displayed by the man carrying the child. The woman, who stands between the two men, appears to be observing them with a critical gaze, perhaps signaling her awareness of the discrepancy between their actions and their true natures. This powerful illustration, created by Chodowiecki in 1793, offers a poignant commentary on the duality of human nature, highlighting the importance of authenticity and compassion in a world filled with hypocrisy and deceit. The artwork, now a part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a testament to the enduring relevance of Chodowiecki's work and the rich cultural heritage it represents.
