Aspect des rues de Paris depuis... 19th century
EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Appearance of the Streets of Paris, since the Owners Would Admit No More Dogs or Children in Their Buildings), is a poignant and satirical lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier. Created in the 19th century, this image offers a glimpse into Parisian life during a time of rapid urbanization and social change. Daumier masterfully captures the tension between tenants and landlords, with the latter depicted as stern, unyielding figures, turning away a mother and her crying children, as well as a man with a dog. The use of lettering in the image adds to the humor and satire, with the words "Locataires et Propriétaires" (Tenants and Landlords) written above a dividing line, emphasizing the divide between the two groups. The image is a powerful commentary on the social and economic conditions of the time, highlighting the plight of the homeless and the marginalized, and the callousness of the wealthy and powerful. The monochrome palette adds to the somber mood, while the intricate details and expressive figures showcase Daumier's exceptional drafting skills. This lithograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of France and the enduring power of art to capture and reflect the complexities of human experience. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, urban life, and social commentary. This print is part of the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., and is a reminder of the important role that art centers and galleries play in preserving and sharing our collective history and culture.
