EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the caricature of Andre Boniface Louis of Riqueti, Viscount of Mirabeau, famously known as Mirabeau-Tonneau. Created by the talented artist Jacques Louis David, this pen and brown ink drawing with grey wash on paper captures the essence of Mirabeau's larger-than-life personality. Mirabeau-Tonneau, a prominent figure in French history during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, was renowned for his rotund physique and extravagant lifestyle. This satirical portrayal depicts him standing in full length, emphasizing his ample girth resembling that of a barrel. The cartoonish elements highlight his royalist and reactionary beliefs while also alluding to his reputation as an alcoholic debauchee. Despite being the brother of Honore Gabriel Mirabeau, a celebrated orator during the French Revolution, Mirabeau-Tonneau held contrasting views and actively opposed revolutionary ideals. His involvement as a colonel in the American Revolution further adds depth to his complex character. The intricate details captured in this sketch offer insight into Mirabeau-Tonneau's persona as a freemason and provide social commentary through satire. With its black-and-white aesthetic reminiscent of vintage photography from Studio Giraudon in 1939, this image is part of Rothschild collection housed at Louvre (Cabinet de dessins) in Paris. As we delve into this historical artwork by David, we are transported back to an era filled with political turmoil
