EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the renowned series "Les Bons Bourgeois" by Honore Daumier. In plate 70, titled "Come along, I am telling you the scarf you have at home is much more beautiful" we are transported to the bustling streets of Paris in 1847. The image depicts a couple strolling down the street, with the husband eagerly pointing towards a shop window display. The man, wearing a top hat and holding a stick, seems convinced that his wife's shawl cannot compare to what he sees before him. Meanwhile, his wife appears skeptical but intrigued by her husband's claims. Daumier's caricature style adds an element of satire to this scene. Through exaggerated features and humorous expressions, he playfully comments on the temptations faced by bourgeois society during this time period. The composition beautifully captures both the charm of Parisian life and the complexities within relationships. As viewers, we are invited to reflect on themes of consumerism and material desires while enjoying Daumier's artistic wit. Displayed at Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet in France, this lithograph showcases Daumier's mastery as an artist and satirist. It serves as a timeless reminder of how art can entertain us while offering insightful social commentary.
