Honoré Daumier

    February 26, 1808 – February 10, 1879

    Honoré Daumier was a French artist whose works were characterized by keen observation and social commentary. His pieces, often satirical, explored the human condition and the societal dynamics of his era. Daumier's ability to capture the psychology of his subjects and their environment earned him recognition as a master of realistic portrayal. His artistic legacy lies in his unflinching gaze upon reality and his capacity to render it with enduring power.

      Max Liebermann bezeichnete ihn als "den größten Künstler des 19. Jahrhunderts". Der geniale Karikaturist, Maler, Bildhauer und Buchillustrator Honore Daumier wurde in Deutschland vor allem durch sein gewaltiges grafisches Werk bekannt, das schärfste politische Polemik bietet und den bürgerlichen Alltag von Paris, der "Hauptstadt des 19. Jahrhunderts", satirisch porträtiert. Darüber hinaus präsentiert dieses Buch den "ganzen" Daumier: neben den berühmten Lithografien vor allem auch die Ölbilder, in denen er sich insbesondere der mitfühlenden Darstellung des einfachen Volkes widmet, außerdem Zeichnungen und Plastiken. Seine dramatische Kunst ist von überraschender Aktualität sie vereint in sich Groteske und Pathos, ihre Themen sind in immer neuen Variationen die Brü che und Verwerfungen in der Gesellschaft und der Zerfall der traditionellen Werte.0Exhibition: Liebermann Haus, Berlin, Germany (02.03.-02.06.2013)

    • "Who is going to marry Eugenie Grandet?" This is the question that fills the minds of the inhabitants of Saumur, the setting for Eugenie Grandet (1833), one of the earliest and most famous novels in Balzac's Comedie humaine. The Grandet household, oppressed by the exacting miserliness of Grandet himself, is jerked violently out of routine by the sudden arrival of Eugenie's cousin Charles, recently orphaned and penniless. Eugenie's emotional awakening, stimulated by her love for her cousin, brings her into direct conflict with her father, whose cunning and financial success are matched against her determination to rebel. Eugenie's moving story is set against the backdrop of provincial oppression, the vicissitudes of the wine trade, and the workings of the financial system in the aftermath of the French Revolution. It is both a poignant portrayal of private life and a vigorous fictional document of its age.
