Jean-Jacques Grandville
Le Caricature - Hand-Colored Lithograph by Jean-Jacques Grandville - 1831

1831

About the Item

Le Caricature is an original Hand-colored lithograph realized by Jean-Jacques Grandville in 1831. with a sentence on the lower center "On s'abonne chez Aubert Galerie Vero-Dodat", Hand-signed on the plate. In very good conditions. References: von Kritter 1980 / La Caricature: Bildsatire in Frankreich 1830-35 (p.55, n.5) Here the artwork represents theatrical satiric figures, in various costumes, including the skeleton, revolutionary, devil and mummy through bright colors and soft and precise strokes, with clothes and description frames hanging on the back wall. Jean Ignace Isidore Gérard (1803-1847) known by the pseudonym of Jean-Jacques or J. J. Grandville, was a French caricaturist. Grandville's ability for political provocation made his work with great impact. He worked in a wide variety of formats, from his first job illustrating the parlor game Old Maid, to illustrated newspaper strips of which he was a master. Though the designs of Grandville are occasionally unnatural and absurd, they usually display keen analysis of character and marvellous inventive ingenuity, and his humour is always tempered and refined by delicacy of sentiment and a vein of sober thoughtfulness.
