EDITORS COMMENTS
Paul Gavarni's captivating drawing, "V'la l'Coco: The Chocolate Vendor," transports us back to the bustling streets of 19th century France. The full-length portrait depicts a male chocolate vendor, identified as Chevallier Sulpice Guillaume or Chevallier Guillaume Sulpice, dressed in the typical attire of his profession. He wears a long, dark apron adorned with intricate designs, a wide-brimmed hat, and a simple, collared shirt. The vendor carries a large, ornate urn on his back, which holds the precious chocolate. The drawing is a prime example of the Realist artistic movement, with its focus on capturing the everyday life and people of the time. The use of graphite and ink on paper adds to the intricacy and detail of the image. The vendor stands confidently, holding a drinking vessel and a sampling cup in his hands, inviting passersby to indulge in the rich, decadent chocolate. The setting of the drawing is a busy street scene, with a samovar and an urn in the background, suggesting the presence of other vendors and the lively commerce of the area. The vendor's posture and expression convey a sense of pride and self-assurance, reflecting the importance of his job in the community. "V'la l'Coco: The Chocolate Vendor" is a valuable heritage art piece that offers a glimpse into the social class and fashion of the 1850s. The drawing's rich colors and intricate details make it a must-see for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
