Menus Propos
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph by the Belgian artist Félicien Rops, created in 1856 for the periodical "Uylenspiegel." This monochromatic masterpiece showcases an elderly Flemish woman, seated indoors with a glass of drink in hand, engrossed in a book. The scene takes place in what appears to be a modest, domestic setting, with the woman's worn and textured clothing and the simple furnishings adding to the sense of history and heritage. Rops, a renowned artist of the 19th century, expertly captures the woman's expressive face and the subtle details of her surroundings. The woman's furrowed brow and intense gaze suggest deep concentration, while the creases in her clothing and the worn texture of the table add to the overall sense of age and history. The black and white composition, with its high contrast and intricate details, adds to the timeless and evocative nature of the image. This lithograph, titled "Menus Propos," was published in the Belgian periodical "Uylenspiegel" on May 11, 1856. It is now part of the extensive collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to captivate and inspire viewers with its intricate details, historical significance, and artistic merit. The image is a poignant depiction of domestic life in the 19th century, and a testament to the enduring power of art to transport us to another time and place.
