French Louis
In the nineteenth century, France is a fascinating world, and sometimes treacherous revolutions. It is flavored with a mixture of property and sensuality, which eventually led to the creation of new artistic and literary production. At that time the world was gifted with great artists such as Honore Daumier, caricaturist, painter and sculptor. It covers a wide range of topics from literature, society and science to the art world.
Honoré Daumier was born as "Honoré Victorin Daumier" on February 26, 1808, Marseille, Jean-Baptiste Louis Daumier and Cécile Philippe CÃ © Catherine. In 1814, Jean-Baptiste moved to Paris. The artist and his mother joined John in 1816. From his youth, Honoré loved art, a passion Jean refused. To divert interest from the artist, John is working first as an errand boy, then as assistant editor. In 1822, Alexandre Lenoir, a friend of Jean and an artist and archaeologist, became head of Honore Daumier. Soon, in 1823, the artist tries to Acadia © mie Suisse. His background in art does not last long and in 1825 became an apprentice lithographer named Belliard. Here, Honoré has earned the trial firsthand with lithography.
Daumier began his professional artistic research lithography. He has worked for advertisers and publishers Music. He drew pictures, most of the drawings directly on the lithographic stone or engraved in wood blocks with a lithographic crayon or pencil smooth. Must be a mirror image directly on the surface of a polished limestone, to a printed image right. "Masks" (1831) and "© past, present the future "(1834) are a pair of his greatest tracks. A lithographed plates compiled Honore had somewhere around 3958.
During the reign French Louis Philippe, Charles Philipon, French artist and journalist, founded a satirical newspaper Le Charivari, 01 Dec 1832. The artist has quickly joined the staff responsible for Charles, and his cartoons are an accessory of the forties. He developed an uncanny ability to exaggerate the traits celebrities to unrecognizable level, while maintaining sharp humor. The goal of social and political injustice, especially large social wigs and government. Daumier has even been condemned by the SE-Majesta ¨ © (violation of the dignity of a head of state) because of his caricature of the king as Gargantua (1831), a lithograph. Therefore, Honore, has been jailed for six months in 1832. The Charivari soon replaced La Caricature, Daumier continued social caricature, the resumption of political satire in 1848. His popularity has led to a series entitled "The Association monthly" (1834) which includes "The legislative belly" and "Street Transnoinan" and special editions called "El Blanco" (1843).
Daumier created a considerable number of sculptures in unbaked clay. His sculpture, "Ratapoil" (1851) is a wonderful piece of art. Meanwhile, Charivari in 1860 left to join in 1864. Was also a great painter, Daumier was a pioneer of "naturalism" with honesty and honest vision and a powerful direct. One of his masterpieces are "Christ and his apostles." Unfortunately, as a painter, Honore only saw success in 1878.
Throughout his life, strict censorship rules led to Daumier abandon "political satire" and focus on the type of "De Paris", paving the way for the "realism". His images crossed cultural boundaries and land. His work continues to grace some of the art museums in the world, including the Louvre. Honoré Daumier was blind with age and died February 10, 1879.
