Mon cher ami, je viens sans cérémonie..
EDITORS COMMENTS
(My dear friend, I have come without ceremony to ask you for dinner), a captivating lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, dates back to 1838. This masterpiece, titled "Mon cher ami, je viens sans ceremonie.." is part of Daumier's "Croquis d'expressions" series and was originally published in the French satirical magazine "Le Charivari" on 18 April 1838. The black and white image depicts a man, seemingly annoyed, extending an invitation to a friend with a bottle of wine in hand. The play on words in the title is evident in the man's gesture, as he holds the bottle upside down, spilling its contents, emphasizing the phrase "sans ceremonie" (without ceremony). The setting is a dining room table, with empty chairs and a bare table, suggesting an expectation of a dinner invitation. Daumier's use of humor and satire is evident in this cartoon, as the man's annoyed expression and the spilled wine add to the overall humorous tone. The man's attire, typical of the 19th century, further adds to the historical context of the piece. This lithograph is a testament to Daumier's ability to capture everyday life and human emotion through his art. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the humor and social norms of the time. Today, this piece is part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of France and the enduring influence of Honore Daumier.
