About the Item
This is a rare 19th century satirical lithograph by Honoré-Victorin Daumier entitled "Types Parisiens, L'InstItuteur: Votre fils me fera honneur!....c'est un joli sujet!!!", No. 24 (Parisian Types, The Institutor: Your son will be my honor! ... it's a nice subject !!), published in Paris in the satirical magazine La Caricature, May 24, 1840 by Aubert et Cie. It depicts a man presenting his son to another man, presumably a teacher or school headmaster, who politely states that it would be an honor to take care of such a nice boy, as he watches the boy picking his nose. An apparent teaching poster or map hangs on the wall in the background.
This rare Daumier lithograph is presented in a silver wood frame with inner and outer black trim and a mauve mat. There are several spots, but the print is otherwise in very good condition. It is offered in an identical style frame and mat to another Daumier caricature listed on 1stDibs, LU117325582392. They would make an attractive and interesting display grouping. A 20% discount is available for purchase of the pair.
The journal La Caricature was founded after the censorship laws had been relaxed following the July Revolution of 1830 in which Louis Philippe came to power. It covered both politics and art. The journal became increasingly vocal in its opposition to Louis-Philippe, and was seized more than twelve times. The publishers were prosecuted and the government forced the magazine to close in 1835. It reopened in 1838 and continued pulling until 1843.
The most famous artistic contributor to La Caricature as well as to another political and satirical magazine, Le Charivari, was Honoré-Victorin Daumier (1808-1879), who was a French printmaker, caricaturist, painter, and sculptor. His work often focused on French common people, the legal profession and in particular judges, as well as politicians, frequently communicating his views on the social and political life in France in the 19th century. Baudelaire stated that "he was one of the most important men, not only, I would say, in caricature, but also in modern art". Daumier's works are found in many of the world's leading art museums, including the Louvre, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The British Museum and the Rijksmuseum.
