EDITORS COMMENTS
The black and white lithograph titled "HarlePere" captures the essence of 19th-century French politics with a touch of satire. Created by Honore Daumier and published in La Caricature no. 136 on June 5,1833, this caricature portrays a prominent politician named Harle Pere. In the image, Harle Pere is depicted as an overweight man dressed in a suit that seems to be dripping with excess food. His large nose dominates his face, while spectacles rest upon his round cheeks. With a handkerchief in one hand and glasses in the other, he exudes an air of unhygienic habits. Sitting at a table covered with a tablecloth adorned with political symbols, Harle Pere represents the corruption and gluttony prevalent among politicians during that era. The artist's attention to detail highlights every aspect of this character's appearance: from his disheveled hair to his protruding belly. Daumier's skillful use of caricature aims to criticize not only Harle Pere but also the entire political system he represents. Through humor and exaggeration, Daumier exposes the flaws within French politics at that time. Today, this lithograph can be found at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of their heritage art collection. It serves as both a historical document reflecting societal issues during the 19th century and an artistic masterpiece showcasing Daumier's talent for capturing human nature through satirical illustrations.
