Je crois que c'est un lièvre...
EDITORS COMMENTS
or "I think it's a hare," is a captivating lithograph created by the renowned 19th century French artist, Honore Daumier. This image showcases Daumier's exceptional skill in caricature and satire, as he masterfully depicts a scene of a hunter and his hunting dog, intently focused on a grey figure in the woods. The title of the work suggests that the hunter may be mistakenly believing he has spotted a hare, as the figure in question is actually a man, shown cocking one leg in a pose reminiscent of a hare's stance. Honore Daumier, born in 1808, was a prolific artist known for his biting social commentary and humorous illustrations. This work, created in the 19th century, is a testament to his ability to capture the essence of everyday life and human nature through his art. The monochrome palette adds to the timeless quality of the piece, making it a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery exhibition. This work, titled "Croquis de chasse" or "Hunting Sketches," is a prime example of Daumier's contribution to the historic development of art, particularly in the realm of caricature and satire. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. is one location where visitors can appreciate the rich cultural heritage and artistic legacy of Honore Daumier's work, including "Je crois que c'est un lièvre..." The image of a man mistaken for a hare is a playful and humorous concept that continues to resonate with audiences today, making it a beloved piece in the annals of art history. Whether viewed as a commentary on the human tendency to misperceive reality or as a simple representation of the joys of the hunt, this work by Honore Daumier is sure to elicit a smile and spark the imagination.
