Easter in the Old World Barnyard,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating lithograph by Joseph Keppler from the renowned American magazine, Puck, published in 1895, offers a delightful and humorous depiction of Easter celebrations in the 19th century. This colorful and intricately detailed work of art on newsprint showcases a lively scene in an Old World barnyard, where European farmers and their families have gathered to celebrate the arrival of spring and the hatching of new chickens. The image is filled with vibrant colors and playful caricatures. In the foreground, a proud rooster proudly displays his freshly laid eggs to a group of admiring humans, while another cockerel struts around, showing off his plumage. The farmers and their wives are engaged in various Easter activities, such as dyeing eggs and preparing a sumptuous feast. In the background, a man in traditional Japanese attire, likely referencing the First Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, looks on curiously. This antique lithograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the 19th century and the artistic skill of its creator, Joseph Keppler. The use of lithotint, a type of lithography, adds depth and texture to the image, making it a valuable addition to any art collection or exhibition. The concept of Easter as a time for family, food, and the renewal of life is beautifully captured in this whimsical and charming work of art. This historic piece of art, with its parody and humor, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of Easter celebrations, European culture, or the art of the 19th century. It can be found in various art galleries and museums, including the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world.
