EDITORS COMMENTS
The print of Mouchillonnette: story without rhymes or reason, 1860 captures the whimsical and imaginative world created by French draftsman Jean-Charles Pellerin. Pellerin, known for his revolutionary images printed at the "Factory of Pellerin" in the early 19th century, brought to life a fantastical tale through his intricate illustrations. In this particular piece, Mouchillonnette is depicted in a colorful and detailed scene that invites viewers to step into a world where logic takes a backseat to creativity. The characters and settings seem to dance off the page, drawing you into their enchanting narrative without any need for rhyme or reason.
