EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the engraving titled "Choleric, from Exercices d Imagination de Differens Characteres et Formes Humaines" created by R. Brichet and published in Augsbourg in 1783-84. The image depicts a male portrait that represents one of the four humours known as choleric. In this allegorical representation, the choleric temperament is characterized by its violent and vengeful nature. It symbolizes yellow bile, one of the elemental fluids believed to influence human behavior during that time period. The artist, Joseph Franz von Goez, skillfully brings forth these characteristics through his meticulous engravings. The figure exudes an intense aura with his piercing gaze and stern expression. His clenched fists suggest a readiness for confrontation while holding a sword adds to his aggressive demeanor. This artwork serves as a visual reminder of how people once perceived different temperaments and their impact on human personality traits. It also reflects the allegoric style popular during the late 18th century. Preserved in Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, this print offers viewers an opportunity to delve into historical interpretations of human psychology and self-reflection.
