Tenez, je viens de tuer un magnifique...
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Here you are, I just killed a magnificent...) is a captivating lithograph by the renowned 19th century French artist, Honore Daumier. This masterpiece, titled "Hunting Sketches," showcases the humorous and satirical side of grouse shooting in rural France. The black and white image depicts a hunter, dressed in traditional hunting attire, triumphantly holding up a dead grouse by its legs. His hunting dog, also covered in mud and feathers, looks up at its master with eager anticipation, as if waiting for its reward. In the background, another hunter can be seen in the distance, with his dog in pursuit of a grouse. The title of the work, "Tenez, je viens de tuer un magnifique..." (Here you are, I just killed a magnificent...), suggests a sense of pride and accomplishment on the part of the hunter. However, Daumier's use of exaggerated features and caricatured figures adds a layer of humor and irony to the scene. The lithograph is part of a larger series of hunting sketches by Daumier, which were popular during the 19th century in France. These works were often exhibited in art galleries and art centers, and were highly sought after by collectors and connoisseurs of the time. Today, they are considered an important part of France's cultural heritage and are displayed in prestigious museums and galleries around the world. Daumier's "Hunting Sketches" offer a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a humorous and insightful depiction of a popular pastime in rural France during the 19th century. With their timeless appeal and enduring quality, these works continue to captivate and delight audiences today.
