EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Soleil Couchant, par Bac (Setting Sun, by Bac)" takes us back to the 19th century in France. Created by Ferdinand Sigismund Bac, this colour litho showcases his artistic brilliance and playful imagination. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in Le Figaro Illustre in 1893. In this satirical drawing, we see a mischievous cat sitting on a painter's palette with its paws covered in paint. As the sun sets beautifully over the seascape behind them, it seems that the cat has accidentally transformed into an artist itself. With smudges of paint altering its appearance, this happy accident has inspired a humorous scene that brings amusement to anyone who gazes upon it. Bac's clever use of satire and wit shines through as he playfully depicts the transformation of this feline into an artist. This picture captures not only the charm of domestic cats but also highlights their ability to bring joy and laughter into our lives. The altered sunset serves as a backdrop for this whimsical portrait, adding depth and intrigue to the overall composition. It reminds us that sometimes unexpected changes can lead to delightful surprises. With its rich history and cultural significance, "Soleil Couchant" stands as a testament to Bac's talent as well as his ability to create thought-provoking works of art that transcend time.
