05703Paris: Chez Aubert 1833. One of the earliest sustained attempts in European graphic art to render political power <br /> as embodied psychology rather than symbolic caricature"<br /> Orléanist Politicians as Seen by Daumier<br /> <br /> DAUMIER Honoré. Célébrités de la Caricature. Paris: Chez Aubert 1833.<br /> <br /> Folio 4 3/4 x 10 1/2 inches; 374 x 267 mm. <br /> <br /> Two inserted portraits one inserted illustration by Jouas and seventeen of twenty-six superb lithograph plates from the series Célébrités de la Caricature by Honoré Daumier and five hand colored duplicate plates. <br /> All plates mounted on stubs.<br /> <br /> Bound ca. 1900 in three-quarter black morocco over marbled boards smooth spine decoratively stamped and lettered horizontally in gilt 'Portraits en Pied Parlementaires - 1833' marbled endpapers. Some foxing throughout.<br /> <br /> "Célébrités de la Caricature Celebrities from La Caricature is a series of 26 lithographs which appeared in La Caricature and Le Charivari between April 26 1832 and November 9 1833. The first eight prints of the series show the portraits of well known politicians of the time. Underneath taking up almost as much space as the portrait itself an imaginary coat of arms is showing the characteristics of the person. It is in most cases in color although the portrait is in black and white. The last 18 prints show full size portraits without the coat of arms.<br /> <br /> Philipon had first asked Traviès and later Daumier to draw caricatures of Orléanist politicians while he supplied the text as well as the ideas for their respective coats of arms. On April 26 1832 Philipon explained the project which was to be highly successful to the readers of the Charivari. The publication however had to be delayed since Daumier decided to first mould clay models of each politician before drawing the lithograph. These "Célébrités de la Caricature" appeared under DR 43 45 46 48 and 51 starting with Monsieur de Lameth. In March 1833 the Charivari took over from the Caricature and published another three personalities with their coat of arms under DR 144 150 and 173. After that the series continued with portraits and full figure designs however without the allusive arms. This third section contained 18 full size portraits published in the Caricature during 1833. While the former prints were of a vignette like shape Daumier now showed the entire figure of the person concentrating on their overall appearance including the clothing. The sometimes "theatrical" costumes further enhanced the message the artist wanted to convey of the person's human qualities."

DR #54.<br /> <br /> Célébrités de la Caricature<br /> Sobriquets Decoded: Political Meaning & Satirical Intent<br /> <br /> 1. Mr. Arlépaire - Jean-Marie Harlé père<br /> A pun on "harlequin" and "pair" mocking his theatrical opportunism and habit of shifting loyalties to remain politically relevant.<br /> 2. Mr. Baill. - Claude Baillot<br /> Named to suggest banal rigidity "bailler" / dullness Daumier presents him as the embodiment of complacent parliamentary inertia.<br /> 3. Mr. Baill. color - Claude Baillot<br /> The added color underscores his self-importance while changing nothing of his essential mediocrity.<br /> 4. Mr. Barthe - Félix Barthe<br /> Depicted as overstuffed and ponderous reflecting his reputation as a verbose legal mind weighed down by proceduralism.<br /> 5. Mr. Benjamin Dudessert - Benjamin Delessert<br /> A biting phonetic distortion suggesting softness and indulgence aimed at the banker-philanthropist's comfortable liberalism.<br /> 6. Mr. Cunin Grid. - Laurent Cunin-Gridaine<br /> The fractured name mirrors his contorted political positions caught between protectionist industry and Orléanist moderation.<br /> 7. Mr. Cunin Grid. color - Laurent Cunin-Gridaine<br /> Color heightens the comic tension between his ministerial authority and his awkward almost ungainly physical stance.<br /> 8. Mr. Étien. - Charles-Guillaume Étienne<br /> Reduced to a clipped name to mock his pretensions as a moralist playwright turned cautious regime supporter.<br /> 9. Mr. Étien. color - Charles-Guillaume Étienne<br /> The gentle coloring reinforces the irony of his self-image as a man of letters compromised by political conformity.<br /> 10. Mr. Fulchir. - Jean-Claude Fulchiron<br /> The name hints at "fulgurant" without the substance skewering his rhetorical flourish unsupported by action.<br /> 11. Mr. Guiz. - François Guizot<br /> Barely disguised the truncation signals notoriety rather than concealment: Guizot was already a caricature of doctrinaire power.<br /> 12. Mr. Keratr - Auguste-Hilarion comte de Kératry<br /> The harsh consonants echo his aristocratic stiffness and aloof detachment from popular concerns.<br /> 13. Mr. Joliv. - Adolphe Jollivet<br /> Ironically named to suggest cheerfulness while shown hunched and insinuating-satire aimed at political obsequiousness.<br /> 14. Mr. Odieux - Antoine Odier<br /> A direct moral judgment: "odious" to the opposition for his financial conservatism and cold technocratic demeanor.<br /> 15. Mr. Pot de Naz - Baron de Podenas<br /> A coarse pun implying empty bluster and nasal self-importance aimed at a minor figure inflated beyond his merits.<br /> 16. Mr. Prune - Clément Prunelle<br /> A visual joke on "prunelle" pupil of the eye portraying him as watchful tight-lipped and fundamentally small-minded.<br /> 17. Mr. De Rign - Comte de Rigny<br /> The clipped sobriquet suggests aristocratic rigidity reinforcing his image as a dignified but outdated naval minister.<br /> 18. Mr. Royer-Col. - Pierre-Paul Royer-Collard<br /> Rendered monumental and heavy the name truncation underscores his philosophical gravitas turned into intellectual immobility.<br /> 19. Mr. Royer-Col. color - Pierre-Paul Royer-Collard<br /> Color emphasizes bulk and presence reinforcing Daumier's critique of moral authority ossified into mass.<br /> 20. Mr. Sébast. - Horace-François comte Sebastiani<br /> Shown preening and theatrical the nickname highlights his reputation as a military showman turned political courtier.<br /> 21. Mr. Sébast. color - Horace-François comte Sebastiani<br /> The coloring sharpens the contrast between his flamboyant posture and the hollowness of his parliamentary stance.<br /> 22. Mr. Vieux-Niais - Jean-Pons-Guillaume Viennet<br /> One of Daumier's most savage labels-"old fool"-targeting Viennet's reactionary views and cultural conservatism.<br /> <br /> Daumier Register: DR-43 - DR-75 & DR-144 150 & 173. <br /> The missing plates are DR-43; 45; 46; 48; 51; 53; 63; 144; 150 & 173.
