EDITORS COMMENTS
or "The Good and Bad Fortunes of Good Michel," is a captivating 19th-century series of comic prints featuring the iconic Pierrot character, a staple of European popular culture. Pierrot, a tragicomic figure known for his white face paint, red nose, and blue costume, is depicted in these scenes experiencing both the joys and sorrows of life. In one image, Pierrot is shown basking in the glow of good fortune. He stands triumphantly, a golden coin in hand, while a faithful dog at his side looks up at him adoringly. The sun shines brightly overhead, casting a warm, golden light on the scene. The caption beneath reads, "Heurs," or "Good Fortunes." However, in the next print, Pierrot's luck takes a turn for the worse. In this scene, he is shown in a state of despair, surrounded by a chaotic scene of misfortune. A storm rages around him, and he is drenched and shivering. A mischievous dog has snatched the golden coin from his hand, leaving him penniless. The caption beneath reads, "Malheurs," or "Bad Fortunes." These prints, which were popular in both France and Germany during the 19th century, showcase the enduring appeal of the Pierrot character and the human condition's ability to experience both good and bad luck. The humorous and lighthearted depictions of these situations serve as a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always a glimmer of hope and a reason to laugh. These prints, which are part of the vast collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offer a unique glimpse into the past and serve as a testament to the timeless nature of comic art. Whether used as decorative pieces or as inspiration for modern-day artists, these prints continue to captivate and delight audiences around the world.
