EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ALPHABET OF THE GROTESQUES Quilo-Pele, circa 1890" takes us back to the late 19th century. The illustration, created by an unknown French artist from the 20th century, measures approximately 16.5x11 cm and is part of a private collection. The image showcases an anthropomorphic Indian Mongoose known as Quilo-Pele dressed in a musician's attire. Holding a trumpet in its paws, this peculiar creature represents the letter Q in an alphabet primer or abecedary from 1826 called "ALPHABET DES GROTESQUES - QUILO-PELE". This intriguing artwork combines elements of education, wildlife, and costume design. It serves as both an educational tool for learning the alphabet and a whimsical piece of art that sparks curiosity. The fine details captured through engraving techniques highlight the craftsmanship involved in creating this unique illustration. The composition transports us to early XIX century France with its intricate depiction of musical instruments and attention to detail. While we can only speculate about the purpose behind this Alphabet of Grotesques series, it undoubtedly offers viewers a glimpse into historical teaching methods and artistic expression during that time period. Overall, this print invites us to appreciate the fusion of education and creativity while marveling at the imaginative world brought to life by French School artists over a century ago.
