EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph titled "Series Actualites, the comet, The evening before the 13th of June, plate 406" by Honore Daumier takes us back to a moment in history that was filled with anticipation and fear. In this photo print, we see a couple standing on their balcony in Paris, gazing up at the starry sky. The wife clutches her husband's arm tightly as they both search for signs of the predicted comet Charles-Quint. It is the night before June 13th, 1857, when this celestial event is expected to occur. The world holds its breath as rumors spread about the possibility of this comet colliding with Earth and bringing an end to humanity. Daumier masterfully captures the tension and anxiety felt by these Parisians through his satirical cartoon-like style. The couple's raised eyes reflect their concern while wearing slippers and nightdresses hint at their hurriedness to witness this extraordinary phenomenon from their own home. As they wait anxiously for any sign of the approaching comet, we are reminded of our own vulnerability in face of nature's power. This artwork not only serves as a historical document but also offers a glimpse into everyday life during France's Second Empire period. It highlights how even amidst uncertainty and impending doom, people find solace in each other's company while seeking answers from above.
