Appuyez fort, ça fait rentrer la bosse...
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Press hard, it makes the lump go in) is a captivating lithograph created by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier in 1838. This masterpiece, titled "Appuyez fort, ca fait rentrer la bosse..." (Plate 26) from the series "Croquis d'expressions," is a poignant commentary on the human condition, humorously portraying the universal experience of discomfort and relief. The image depicts a young boy, with a determined expression on his face, intently pressing down on a spot on his body, while his sister looks on with amusement. The boy's gestures and facial expression convey the pain and frustration of dealing with a boil or other ailment, while his sister's reaction suggests a sense of relief and amusement at his discomfort. Daumier's use of black and white contrast creates a striking visual effect, emphasizing the relief and contrast between the pain and the relief, as well as the humor and satire in the scene. The image is a testament to the artist's ability to capture the nuances of human emotion and experience, and his keen sense of humor. This lithograph is a valuable addition to the art historical record, reflecting the social and cultural context of 19th century France, and offering a glimpse into the everyday experiences and family dynamics of the time. Today, it is housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world. Honore Daumier's "Appuyez fort, ca fait rentrer la bosse..." is a timeless work of art that continues to resonate with audiences, offering a humorous and insightful commentary on the human experience, and a testament to the enduring power of art to capture the essence of life's joys and challenges.
