L'Appel de leurs réserves
EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Appeal of their Reservations) is a powerful and poignant caricature by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, created in 1870 during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871. This monochrome print, featuring a Gillotype on newsprint, captures the essence of the human condition during times of war and hardship. Daumier masterfully depicts a scene of despair and urgency, as a group of men, women, and children huddle together, their faces etched with worry and concern. The women and children appeal to the men, who are shown as reluctant, hesitant, or absent, as they are called upon to serve in the military. The title of the piece alludes to the idea that these men are being called from their domestic lives, their "reservations," to answer the call to arms. The image is a testament to the historic significance of the Franco-Prussian War, a pivotal moment in French history that led to the end of the Second French Empire and the beginning of the Third Republic. Daumier's caricature serves as a reminder of the human cost of war, and the disruption it causes to families and communities. This print is a valuable addition to any art collection, particularly those focused on the 19th century, antique art, or the history of caricature and illustration. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. is among the many institutions that have recognized the importance of this work, and it has been exhibited in galleries and museums around the world. With its rich heritage and historical significance, "L'Appel de leurs réserves" is a must-have for anyone with an appreciation for the arts and the human experience.
