EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fan depicting the renowned French writer George Sand and her circle of friends in 1838. Created with exquisite detail using gouache on paper by Auguste Charpentier and George Sand herself, this artwork is now housed at the Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet in Paris, France. The fan portrays an array of notable figures from the era, including Frederic Chopin, the Polish composer and pianist; Eugene Delacroix, the esteemed French artist; Felicien Mallefille; Franz Liszt, the Hungarian painter; Enrico de Bonnechose; Count Albert Grzymala; Pierre Bocage; Emmanuel Arago; Maurice Sand (George Sand's son); Luigi Calamatta; Charles Didier; Michel de Bourges and Solange Sand (George Sand's daughter). The scene depicted on this fan is filled with whimsical elements such as caricatures, a shepherdess swinging on a mermaid-shaped swing, a snake coiled around a sheep's neck, and even a lion. It serves as both a portrait of these influential individuals and as an intriguing piece of memorabilia from that time. With its intricate details and historical significance, this fan offers us a glimpse into the vibrant social circles of 19th-century France. It stands as a testament to George Sand's enduring influence as well as her close relationships with some of the most prominent artists and intellectuals of her time.
