EDITORS COMMENTS
In this thought-provoking lithograph by Honore Daumier, titled "Lovers of classical art more and more convinced that art is lost in France" the artist captures the disapproval and disappointment felt by connoisseurs and lovers of classical art during a French exhibition in 1852. The cartoon-like image depicts a group of visitors at an exhibition, their faces filled with dismay as they observe the artworks on display. The exaggerated expressions convey their deep sense of dissatisfaction with the state of contemporary French art. Daumier's satirical approach highlights the stark contrast between classical masterpieces and what was considered modern or avant-garde at that time. The visitors' disapproval reflects their belief that true artistic excellence had been lost amidst changing trends and experimentation. This artwork serves as a commentary on the Salon, an annual exhibition held in France where artists showcased their works to be judged by critics and public alike. It suggests that even passionate admirers of classical art were increasingly disillusioned with the direction French art was taking. Displayed at San Diego Museum of Art, this print offers us a glimpse into historical debates surrounding artistic taste and evolution. It reminds us how perceptions about what constitutes great art can vary over time, leaving some feeling disconnected from contemporary artistic movements while longing for the timeless beauty found in classical works.
