Docteur Prunelle,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating caricature by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, dates back to 1833. This impression sur blanc, or white line print, masterfully portrays Clement Francois Victor Gabriel Prunelle, a prominent doctor and Mayor of Lyon, France. The monochromatic image, with its striking contrasts of black and white, showcases Daumier's exceptional skill in lithography. The satirical piece humorously depicts Prunelle as a rotund figure, clad in a long robe and holding a medical bag. His stern expression is softened by a mischievous twinkle in his eye, suggesting a man who takes his work seriously but doesn't take himself too seriously. The doctor's oversized ears and exaggerated nose add to the comedic effect, making this a parody that is both amusing and respectful. Prunelle's dual roles as a doctor and mayor are reflected in the image, with a mayoral scepter peeking out from behind his medical bag. This intriguing juxtaposition highlights the multifaceted nature of the subject, who was not only a respected physician but also a civic leader in his community. This rare and intriguing print is a testament to Daumier's mastery of the lithographic medium and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects with wit and insight. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the life of a notable French figure and the artistic vision of one of the most influential artists of the 19th century. Currently housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, "Docteur Prunelle" continues to captivate and inspire viewers with its timeless humor and historical significance.
