EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Two Clowns" captures a moment frozen in time around 1885 by the talented artist Joseph Faverot. The image showcases two enigmatic figures adorned in vibrant and elaborate costumes, standing against a backdrop reminiscent of the circus ring. These clowns embody the essence of entertainment and evoke a sense of melancholy that is characteristic of art nouveau. The fine details captured on this oil-on-wood painting are truly remarkable. From their expressive faces to the intricate ruffs around their necks, every element adds depth and personality to these characters. One can almost hear their laughter echoing through the canvas as they perform acrobatic feats or engage in comedic acts. Faverot's portrayal goes beyond mere caricature; it delves into the psyche of these performers who lead a vagrant life under the big top. Through his brushstrokes, he invites us to contemplate not only their role as entertainers but also the complexities hidden behind their painted smiles. This exquisite piece now resides within a private collection, serving as an enduring testament to Faverot's artistic prowess and his ability to capture both beauty and sorrow within one frame. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the magic that unfolds beneath those colorful circus tents – where dreams come alive with each step taken by these fascinating circus artists.
