Le Danger de s'Assoupir en Voyage,
EDITORS COMMENTS
or "The Dangers of Dozing Off While Traveling," is a captivating print by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, created in 1843. This masterpiece, part of the extensive collection at Heritage Images, showcases the artist's keen observation of human nature and the chaos that can ensue during travel. The image depicts a weary traveler, slumped in his seat, dozing off in the back of a horse-drawn carriage. The conductor, standing in the doorway, jolts the passenger awake with an urgent cry, "Reveillez-vous, monsieur, et descendez de voiture!" or "Wake up, sir, and get out of the carriage!" The startled passenger, groggy and disoriented, asks, "Ou sommes-nous, conducteur?" or "Where are we, conductor?" The conductor, exasperated, replies, "Mais a Rouen parbleu!" or "But we're in Rouen!" The passenger, crestfallen, laments, "A Rouen, et moi qui ne voulais aller que jusqu'a Poissy!" or "In Rouen, but I only wanted to go as far as Poissy!" The scene unfolds with the passenger's frustration and the conductor's matter-of-fact response, highlighting the challenges and uncertainties of travel during the era of horse-drawn carriages. Daumier's ability to capture the essence of human interaction and the unexpected twists of fate in everyday life is evident in this striking print. This work is a testament to the artist's skill in conveying the humor and drama in ordinary situations, making it a valuable addition to any collection.
