1869 Achille Aodng Caricature Dissection Gustave Novelist Parody Flaubert Madame Bovary

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned French novelist Gustave Flaubert in a unique and whimsical light. Created by Achille Lemot in 1869, this caricature depicts Flaubert dissecting his masterpiece "Madame Bovary" which was published just three years prior. Flaubert stands tall, his moustache adding an air of sophistication to his appearance. With a mischievous grin on his face, he appears fully engrossed in the process of unraveling the complexities of Emma Bovary's character. Lemot skillfully captures the essence of Flaubert's dedication to his craft, portraying him as a man consumed by literary analysis. The artist employs clever parody through this image, highlighting Flaubert's meticulous attention to detail and commitment to realism in his writing. By depicting him literally dissecting Madame Bovary, Lemot playfully suggests that Flaubert is not merely creating characters but rather examining them under a microscope. This engraving from The Granger Collection offers viewers a glimpse into the mind of one of France's most celebrated novelists. It serves as both an homage to Flaubert's genius and a testament to the enduring impact of "Madame Bovary" on literature. Whether you are an avid reader or simply appreciate artistry at its finest, this print is sure to captivate your imagination with its blend of humor and intellect.
