16-6135Paris: Chez Bauger Chez Aubert 1841. Lithograph sur blanc. 33.3 x 23.5 cm. Plate no. XI from the series: "Les Lorettes." Armelhault and Bocher no. 773. Les Lorettes described by scholars:MLA citation: Murphy Libby and Greggor Mattson. A la Recherche des Femmes Perdues. Oberlin College 2016.Prostitution was a common social phenomenon that was practiced by women regardless of class but the type of prostitute varied depending on the status of the men involved. The social standing of prostitutes often shifted throughout their lifetimes but their roles generally remained within four basic levels of prostitution. This exhibit focuses on these four important types of prostitutes imagined and mythologized in various media of the time. The lorette the aspiring courtesan was the prostitute of mystery elusive and secretive often evading the government’s health regulations. The grisette was a prostitute from a working-class background often found inhabiting the apartments of young Parisian students. The fille publique or streetwalker was from the lowest class of prostitute and often attracted the poorest customers. Walking the street alone or in groups la fille publique was most vulnerable to police repression. And finally women in “maisons closes†or brothels catered to men of different social classes. The most luxurious brothels attracted middle class men with their continuous business. These women though varying in status participated in a form of sexual commerce that was common in French society in the 19th century. Paris: Chez Bauger, Chez Aubert, 1841 unknown

06347Paris: Caboche Grégoire 1837. One of Paul Gavarni's Rarest and Most Famous Series<br /> Thirty-Four Superb Lithographs.<br /> <br /> GAVARNI Paul pseudonym of Guillaume Sulpice Chevallier. La Boite aux Lettres. Paris: Caboche Grégoire et Cie Chez Arnauld de Vresse libraire éditeur 1837-1839.<br /> <br /> Folio 13 1/2 x 10 1/2 inches; 343 x 267 mm. Thirty-four superb lithograph plates with captions of the 'letters' printed below. Bound without the lithograph title-page.<br /> <br /> Bound by Pagnant ca. 1920 in quarter tan morocco over red patterned boards spine with five raised bands lettered in gilt in compartments cockerel endpapers. Joints expertly repaired some light to moderate foxing to several of the plates. Still an excellent example of this rare suite of lithographs.<br /> <br /> The first twelve lithographs were published by Caboche Grégoire et Cie. The following twenty-two lithographs were published by Aubert & Cie. and appeared in the journal Le Charivari between 7 November 1837 and 6 February 1839.<br /> <br /> According to OCLC there is just one copy with all thirty-four plates in libraries and institutions worldwide: The Clark Art Institute MA USA with all thirty-four plates- but lacking the lithographed title-page. Other than that example there are only three individual lithographs at The Getty CA USA numbers 4 8 & 14. The Getty also have a plain example of number 10. <br /> <br /> Paul Gavarni 1804-1866. "A French artist best known for his lithographs Paul Gavarni née Chevalier Suplice Guillaume was born in Paris on January 13 1804. Throughout his lifetime Gavarni produced over 4000 satirical prints for journals and fashion magazines. Both delicately witty and elegantly revealing of human behavior and character Gavarni's genre scenes made him one of the most important and popular nineteenth-century artists. He is often critically paired with Honoré Daumier with whom he and other young printmakers like Jean-Jacques Grandville and Joseph Traviés raised the status and importance of social lithography and printmaking as an art form. In the 1830s he began to work for L'Artiste La Caricature and most importantly Le Charivari. The latter was owned by Charles Philipon and became Gavarni's longest running contract and most important place of publication. Here Gavarni published some of his most famous series including Les Artistes La Boite aux Lettres Clichy inspired by his month-long stay in debtor's prison Les Coulisses Les Enfants Terribles Impressions de Ménage etc. etc." <br /> childsgallery.com<br /> <br /> "Gavarni as Sainte-Beuve puts it set to depicting and silhouetting society in all directions and from top to bottom: the high society the not so high society-all sorts of societies capturing the life of his time. He grabbed modern life by every available handhold imitating no one looking for nothing else swimming in open water and taking us in his wake amidst the stream of the manners of the time. He was Gavarni with an inexhaustible wit who at the bottom of a graceful drawing always interesting thanks to rational observation would write a caption full of subtle humor. It would sometimes unfold like a short comedy or be condensed like a geometrical axiom. Amusing and light-hearted when taken separately Gavarni's captions showed their true color of skeptical melancholy and of deep and powerful meaning when considered as a whole. He could through the accuracy of faces careful rendering of clothes and the precision of poses and bearing unmistakably express the age quality occupation habits manners and ridiculous ways of the characters he depicted. He made them speak a language that was stunning with original exactness feeling and novelty. Gavarni-and that's why he is great-created two genres at once: the pencil-drawn comedy of manners and the caption. His reputation became huge. True enough much of his audience only saw the funny aspect of the genre and called his drawings "caricatures" without noticing any difference with those of Daumier. But all sensitive souls were seduced by their elegance and subtlety and easily perceived their uniqueness." oldbookillustrations.com.<br /> <br /> Armelhault & Bocher pp. 88-95 11 unnumbered 348-368.
