Imperial Menagerie: The Stuffed Museum - Satirical Caricatures, 1870
About the Item
The print titled "La Ménagerie Impériale - Musée des Empaillés" is another satirical caricature from the series by the artist Hadol. This print, numbered 30, continues to depict various figures as different animals, humorously critiquing their roles and actions. The series "LA MENAGERIE IMPÉRIALE" portrays prominent figures of the time as animals to symbolize their perceived characteristics and behaviors.
In this specific print, four individuals are illustrated:
1. "Le Renard Morny" (The Fox Morny) – A figure with a human head attached to a fox's body, symbolizing cunning and craftiness.
2. "Le Tigre S'Arnaud" (The Tiger S'Arnaud) – A figure with a human head attached to a tiger's body, symbolizing strength and ferocity.
3. "Le Condor Troplong" (The Condor Troplong) – A figure's head mounted on a pedestal, symbolizing lofty and predatory nature.
4. "La Chauve-Souris Baroche" (The Bat Baroche) – A figure with a human head and bat's wings, symbolizing nocturnal and elusive characteristics.
The text at the top reads "LA MENAGERIE IMPERIALE" and "MUSÉE DES EMPAILLÉS" (Museum of the Stuffed Animals), with each figure labeled accordingly. The format is small quarto (Sm. 4to), and the edges are slightly worn and browned, typical for works of this age.
