La Poule, c. 1820 - A Comical and Satirical Dance Step of the Upper Classes
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases "La Poule" a humorous depiction of a fashionable dance step popular among the rich and elite in early 19th-century England. Created by Isaac Robert Cruikshank, this pen and ink with watercolor artwork captures the comical essence of the era's upper-class society. The image portrays an elegantly dressed couple engaged in a lively dance routine, their exaggerated movements adding to the satirical nature of the piece. The man's exaggeratedly ugly appearance adds an element of humor to this social commentary on fashion and societal norms. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, this painting offers viewers a glimpse into the extravagant world of high society during that time period. It serves as both entertainment and critique, highlighting how appearances were often prioritized over substance within these circles. As you admire this remarkable print from eCharles Plante Fine Arts' private collection, take note of how it beautifully captures not only the fashion trends but also reflects upon broader themes such as class divisions and societal expectations. This artwork is truly a testament to Cruikshank's skill in combining artistry with satire to create thought-provoking pieces that transcend time.
