Daumier's irreverent satirizing of the sacred characters in Greek and Roman mythology contributed to the Romantic attack upon the Classical school in the continuing battle waged in the theater literature and the arts.

Deltail # 971.<br/>Charles F. Ramus editor. Daumier 120 Great Lithographs<br/><br/>Histoire Ancienne is a series consisting of 50 numbered lithographs DR. 925-974 which appeared in the Charivari between December 1841 and January 1843. Between December 1841 and January 1843 Honoré Daumier in the Charivari published a series devoted to ancient history: fifty plates to antique themes seventeen of which illustrating the Iliad the Odyssey and Telemachus of Fenelon. "Alone without scientific mission Daumier traveled Greece drawing where a beautiful feeling attached him crying where a touching tradition was waiting. Drawing day and night he finally found the original Greek sense." says the satirical newspaper. The cartoonist wants to infuse "life movement privacy anything that lacked" the Greek hero petrified by ancient sculpture. Some illustrations comic relief reminiscent of Greek tombstones Daumier modernized by the effects of perspective or shortcuts. For each board a comment from a few to a "translation" of Homer crazy "light poetry" underline the ironic look worn by Daumier on antiquity.<br/><br/>"A quarrel between painters of the classic and romantic schools had fully flared up. Delacroix asked the "loaded" question: "Qui me délivrera des Grecs et des Romains" Who redeems us from the Greeks and Romans. Daumier succeeded to answer it his own way by showing historic personalities such as Hercules Pygmalion or Agamemnon in absurd situations. It was his method to put history into perspective.<br/><br/>In December 1841 the Charivari announced the arrival of this series as follows: "We have sent Monsieur Daumier to Greece alone and without any scientific support. He worked day and night to reveal the Greek soul of the past. Daumier brings antiquity back to us".<br/><br/>The lithographs of the series "Histoire Ancienne" were published between 1841 and 1843. Daumier was far ahead of his time when he started as one of the first to show how relative the importance of Greek and Roman Mythology can be in a modern world. The admirers of ancient history especially in Arts however were not dissipated easily. It would take another 15 years until Baudelaire in literature and Offenbach in music de-mystified the "old Greeks" and removed the centuries old dust from them."
