Bobonne... ne le regarde pas tant!
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Bobonne, don't look at it so much!), created by Honore Daumier in 1836, is a captivating hand-coloured lithograph that showcases the artist's exceptional talent for caricature and satire. This intriguing work of art depicts a woman, Bobonne, with an expression of fascination as she gazes at an orangutan, her hand reaching out to touch the glass separating them. The orangutan, a symbol of exoticism and curiosity during the 19th century, appears to be returning her gaze, creating a playful and humorous scene. Honore Daumier, a renowned French artist, masterfully employed the grotesque and the caricatured to comment on society and its foibles. In this piece, he skillfully captures the essence of human curiosity and the allure of the unknown. The hand-coloured lithograph, with its vibrant hues and intricate details, is a testament to Daumier's artistic prowess and his ability to capture the human condition in all its complexity. This work of art is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, offering a glimpse into the cultural and historical context of the 19th century. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and other prestigious institutions have recognized the importance of Daumier's work and have included it in their exhibitions, showcasing it to audiences from around the world. Bobonne... ne le regarde pas tant! is a delightful and thought-provoking piece that continues to captivate and inspire, inviting viewers to ponder the human fascination with the strange and the unfamiliar. Whether viewed as a work of art or a historical artifact, this lithograph is a must-have for anyone interested in the rich heritage of art and the human experience.
