François, Marquis de Barbé-Marbois Portrait Sculpture After Honoré Daumier

1963

About the Item

A sculpture of the portrait of François, Marquis de Barbé-Marbois originally crated by Honoré Daumier ( French, 1808 - 1879). The sculpture made of carved wood is signed in the bottom by the artist " Austin Productions" and dated " 1963" . The sculpture is sitting on a square light color wood base. About Honoré Daumier: Honoré-Victorin Daumier (French February 26, 1808 – February 10, 1879) was a French painter, sculptor, and printmaker, whose many works offer commentary on the social and political life in France, from the Revolution of 1830 to the fall of the second Napoleonic Empire in 1870. He earned a living throughout most of his life producing caricatures and cartoons of political figures and satirizing the behavior of his countrymen in newspapers and periodicals, for which he became well known in his lifetime and is still known today. He was a republican democrat who attacked the bourgeoisie, the church, lawyers and the judiciary, politicians, and the monarchy. He was jailed for several months in 1832 after the publication of Gargantua, a particularly offensive and discourteous depiction of King Louis-Philippe. - Wikipedia Dimensions: 8” H x 5.75” W x 5.5” D

  • Lost in reflexion
    By Guillaume Lachapelle
    Located in Montreal, Quebec
    Text by Terence Sharpe There is a moment in Andrei Tarkovsky’s Solaris (1972) when the character Hari commits suicide by drinking liquid oxygen. As she is not actually a human, but an artificial hybrid product of the mysterious planet and the protagonists’ memories, she heals rapidly and is alive again minutes later. Her choice to take her own life is poignant, seemingly the action of a being becoming aware of its hopeless infinitude. Her realization that while the men will die on the space station or elsewhere, her existence is that of immortality, a deeply alienating notion that causes her to seek her own destruction. The Montreal artist Guillaume Lachapelle has one work that prompts a sense of eternal alienation that echoes Hari’s tragedy. The work greets the viewer with a empty doorway flanked by clinically white bookshelves...
