EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Une Variete dans l Amour (A Change of Heart), 1879/1880" captures a scene from the 19th century, showcasing the intricate artistry of Félix Hilaire Buhot. This etching depicts a moment in high society, where social class and relationships intertwine. In this composition, we find ourselves in a country setting, with a man reclining on a chaise longue while smoking his pipe. Beside him lies an elegant woman, both seemingly lost in their own thoughts. The presence of two dogs adds to the tranquil atmosphere as they rest at their feet. Buhot's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this etching. The use of drypoint aquatint dust ground and roulette techniques creates depth and texture throughout the artwork. The artist skillfully portrays not only the physical features but also the emotional state of each character. This piece alludes to Jules Amedee Barbey d'Aurevilly's novel "Une Vieille Maîtresse" exploring themes of love, change, and societal expectations prevalent during that era. It serves as an illustration for literature enthusiasts who appreciate visual interpretations alongside written narratives. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art Washington, this print stands as a testament to Buhot's mastery in capturing human emotions within his artistic creations. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today by offering glimpses into another time period filled with elegance and intrigue.
