To Each His Own
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor painting by Louis Henri de Fontenay, created between 1810 and 1852. This intriguing artwork, a testament to the 19th century Dutch artistic heritage housed in the Rijksmuseum, invites viewers to ponder the simple joys of life and the passage of time. At the heart of the scene, an elderly man, with a full beard and donning pince-nez glasses, relishes in the pleasure of a boiled egg. His expression is one of contentment, as he carefully brings the egg to his mouth, leaving a trail of drool on his chin. In stark contrast, two children, a boy and a girl, sit at a nearby table, their faces reflecting varying degrees of hunger and impatience. The boy gazes longingly at a bowl of porridge, while the girl, with an untidy braid, reaches out for an egg, her fingers poised to grasp it. The painting's title, "To Each His Own," is a poignant reminder of the unique experiences and desires that define each individual. The diverse reactions of the three characters, united by their shared indoor setting, invite reflection on the concept of personal satisfaction and the simple pleasures that bring happiness. The use of watercolor paint adds depth and texture to the scene, further emphasizing the warmth and intimacy of this timeless moment. Louis Henri de Fontenay, a Dutch artist, masterfully captures the essence of human emotion and the complexities of everyday life in this evocative work of art. Through the use of color and composition, Fontenay invites us to appreciate the beauty in the ordinary and the universality of the human experience. This painting is a treasure of European art history, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring power of art to inspire and captivate.
