EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph by Honore Daumier captures a humorous moment between two female playwrights in 1852 France. The first lady playwright exclaims, "My dear, our comedy in two acts has just been rejected by the Theatre Francais!" To which the second lady playwright responds with a witty solution, "All we can do is add three acts and a dream, making it a tragedy that we will offer to the Odeon."
The scene is filled with disappointment and frustration as the women contemplate their next steps after facing rejection from one of France's most prestigious theaters. Daumier's satirical take on this situation highlights the challenges faced by female artists trying to break into the male-dominated world of theater during the 19th century.
Through his clever use of humor and exaggerated gestures, Daumier invites viewers to reflect on themes of gender inequality, artistic perseverance, and creative resilience. This print serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by women in history who dared to challenge societal norms and pursue their passion for storytelling.
Displayed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), this piece continues to spark conversations about representation in the arts and serves as a testament to the enduring power of creativity in overcoming adversity.
