EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "C for Clown and Columbine - D for Dancer and Dragon, around 1920" takes us back to the enchanting world of the early twentieth century. Created by an anonymous French artist from the 20th century, this artwork measures 31x24 cm and is part of a private collection. The image is taken from "Alphabet du bal costume" a renowned alphabet primer published by Hachette in Paris during the 1920s. Illustrated by S. Decam, this piece showcases the letter C representing a clown alongside his beloved Columbine, while D portrays a graceful dancer accompanied by an intriguing dragon. Transporting us to a time when culture thrived with artistry and creativity, this print captures the essence of both circus performance and dance. The clown's vibrant attire evokes joyous laughter under big tops, while the dancer's elegance intertwines with mythical creatures. With its military uniform-inspired costumes reminiscent of court jesters, this artwork also offers glimpses into traditional French culture during that era. It serves as a testament to France's rich history as well as its contribution to European arts. Jean Duvallon skillfully captured this moment in time through his lens, preserving it for future generations to appreciate. This fine art piece not only celebrates beauty but also invites viewers on a journey through history – reminding us of our shared cultural heritage.
