Il a été maltraité et opprimé et il n'a pas ouvert la bouche - from "Miserere"
By Georges Rouault
Located in Roma, IT
Wonderful original etching with aquatint realized by Georges Rouault between 1916 and 1923, published as a suite in 1948. Sheet in perfect conditions. The artwork is part of the important suite Miserere realized by Rouault between 1917 and 1923, considered as the most important religious graphic of XX century. Il a été maltraité et opprimé et il n'a pas ouvert la bouche represents an episode of Christ's passion. Miserere suite is divided in two themes: religious and profane; one is linked to Christ's passion and the other is dedicated to the human event, to the pilgrimage of pain on earth, made even more tragic by war. In the 58 original plates, Rouault lingers on the conditions of humanity. Like few other contemporaries, Rouault represents man, placing him at the center of an absurd and squalid theater. Interesting the use of contrasts and the shapes of the figures with black outlines. In this artwork the figure of Christ is placed in the center facing down. Georges Rouault (Paris, 1871) has been an interesting exponent of French Expressionism...
