EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art: a coloured raw earth bust of the renowned French cartoonist, lithographer, journalist, and publisher Charles Philipon. Created by the talented sculptor Honore Daumier in 1831, this sculpture can be found at the Musee d'Orsay in Paris. The intricately carved features on this bust capture the essence of Philipon's personality and profession. With every line and contour expertly crafted, Daumier brings to life the old laughter edente - a symbol of wit and humor that defined Philipon's work. As one gazes upon this masterpiece, it is impossible not to appreciate its historical significance. Charles Philipon played an instrumental role in shaping French satire during his time as he fearlessly used his cartoons to criticize social and political issues. His contributions as a journalist and publisher further solidified his place in history. Through this photograph, we are transported back to 19th-century France where artistry thrived amidst societal change. The rich colors of the raw earth material add depth and texture to the portrait, enhancing its visual impact. This image serves as a reminder of both Daumier's exceptional talent as a sculptor and Philipon's influential legacy within French society. It stands as a testament to their artistic prowess while offering us an intimate glimpse into their world through fine art photography captured by Photo Josse.
