Eh bien! Mon brave anglais...
EDITORS COMMENTS
(So! my brave Englishman...) is a captivating lithograph created by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier in the 19th century. This intriguing work of art showcases a soldier in a plumed helmet, with a smug expression on his face, addressing a bewildered Englishman. The Englishman, dressed in travel attire, appears to be holding a map, looking perplexed as if he has taken a wrong turn on his journey to Denmark. The humor in this piece lies in the caricatured portrayal of the soldier, who seems to be mocking the Englishman for his apparent mistake. The soldier's plumed helmet and military attire add an air of authority and superiority, while the Englishman's disheveled appearance and puzzled expression convey a sense of confusion and frustration. This full-length, black and white lithograph is a testament to Daumier's exceptional artistic skills and his ability to capture the essence of human nature through satire and parody. The contrast between the two figures, their body language, and the subtle details in their expressions make this a fascinating piece of art that continues to intrigue and amuse viewers to this day. Originally created in the 19th century, "Eh bien! Mon brave anglais..." is now a cherished addition to the collections of many prestigious art galleries and museums around the world, including the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. This work of art is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, satire, or the rich cultural heritage of France and Britain. Whether you're a seasoned art collector or a curious tourist, this lithograph is sure to leave a lasting impression and provide a unique insight into the world of 19th century art and the wit and humor of Honore Daumier.
