EDITORS COMMENTS
Dis donc, Macaire, que que c'est que c'té... (Goodness, Macaire, what is it?) is a captivating lithograph created by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier in the 19th century. This monochrome masterpiece depicts the infamous character Robert Macaire, a notorious con artist and cook known for his cunning schemes and deceptive practices. Daumier's depiction of Macaire is a brilliant example of his satirical and humorous style. In the image, Macaire is shown with a cooking pot in hand, surrounded by various pots and pans, suggesting his occupation as a cook. However, the mischievous look on his face and the title of the work suggest that he is up to no good. The use of lettering in the title adds an element of parody and reinforces the concept of Macaire's deceitful nature. The image is a testament to Daumier's ability to capture the essence of a fictional character and bring it to life through his art. This antique print is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of France and the historic significance of 19th century art. The greyscale tones add to the timeless quality of the work, making it a striking and intriguing piece for any art lover or historian. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is just one of the many prestigious institutions that have recognized the value of Honore Daumier's work and have included it in their collections. This lithograph is a reminder of the enduring influence of Daumier's art and his ability to capture the human condition through his caricatures and cartoons.
