EDITORS COMMENTS
Manquant le convoi," or "Missing the Train," is a poignant and humorous lithograph created by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier in the 19th century. This antique artwork, now housed in various art galleries and centers around the world, including the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., captures the essence of the burgeoning railway era and the sense of urgency it brought with it. The monochrome image, with its grey and black-and-white tones, depicts a crowd of people huddled together in the rain, all hurrying to catch a train that has already departed. The title "Manquant le convoi" is written in bold, expressive lettering at the bottom of the print, adding to the sense of urgency and frustration. Daumier's masterful use of caricature and parody is evident in the physiognomies of the figures in the print. The faces of the men and women are exaggerated, with furrowed brows, wide eyes, and open mouths, conveying a sense of desperation and disappointment. The woman in the foreground, her umbrella raised against the rain, seems to embody the collective frustration of the group. The title "Physiognomies des chemins de fer," or "The Depiction of the Railways," is a fitting one for this print. Daumier's work captures not only the physicality of the railway era but also the emotional and psychological impact it had on people. The sense of hurry and haste, the anticipation and disappointment, and the communal experience of waiting for a train are all brilliantly depicted in this timeless work of art. Today, "Manquant le convoi" remains a beloved and enduring image of the 19th century, a testament to Daumier's artistic vision and the power of the printed image to capture the essence of a historical moment.
