EDITORS COMMENTS
Le Danger de s'assoupir en Voyage" (The Dangers of Dozing Off During Travel), created by Honore Daumier in the 19th century, is a captivating lithograph that masterfully captures the essence of rail travel during that era. The image portrays a porter in a railway carriage, waking up a drowsy passenger with a concerned expression. The passenger, caught off guard, asks, "Where are we?" The porter replies, "Rouen," to which the passenger expresses his frustration, as he had only intended to go as far as Poissy for a dinner engagement at 5 o'clock that evening. The porter, with a hint of humor, suggests that the passenger can take the first train the next morning and arrive early for breakfast, implying that the difference is insignificant. This humorous exchange between the two men highlights the confusion and occasional chaos that could arise during travel in the 19th century. The black-and-white lithograph, with its intricate details and satirical undertones, is a testament to Daumier's artistic brilliance. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to experience the daily struggles and amusing situations that unfolded during the railway era. This work of art, with its rich historical context and timeless humor, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of transportation and the human condition. Honore Daumier, a renowned French artist, created this lithograph as part of his extensive body of work. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., is one of the many prestigious institutions that have added this masterpiece to their collections, making it accessible to art enthusiasts and scholars alike. This image is a reminder of the past, showcasing the humor and intrigue that can be found in the most unexpected places.
