Scènes de la Vie Intime

ref. 06725Paris: n.p. 1837. The Most Intimate of All Gavarni's Color-Plate Suites GAVARNI Paul pseudonym of Guillaume Sulpice Chevallier. Scènes de la Vie Intime. Paris: 1837.

Minor signs of handling only the plates clean and well preserved. Issued as a suite of twelve lithographs accompanied by a separate 'Titre de la couveture' which is not present Armelhault & Bocher. Scènes de la Vie Intime is one of the jewels of Gavarni's printed oeuvre and is certainly one of Gavarni's most appealing and elusive color-plate suites - capturing the wit elegance and quiet drama of everyday bourgeois life in Paris. Rather than relying on broad caricature Gavarni focused on subtle gestures fashionable costume and the complexities of domestic relationships qualities that made him one of the most admired social observers of the July Monarchy. His keen powers of observation coupled with an effortless draftsmanship place these scenes among the finest achievements of French lithography of the period.

This protean fresco was directed by editor Léon Curmer already known for the publishing success of Paul et Virginie between 1836 and 1838. Curmer is represented here by an article L'éditeur in volume IV written by Elias Regnault. The latter takes example in Louis-Sebastien Mercier's Tableau de Paris published in 1781 whose vision is even further extended by the representation of French provinces in Les Français. Thanks to Curmer the work finds an even deeper meaning: the editor has widened his frame and instead of letting a few fleeting portraits get lost in the immense daily whirlwind that engulfs all things he has sought to bring together the most salient physiognomies of that time.

Early twentieth-century half red scored calf ruled in gilt over marbled boards by Adolphe Cuzin stamp-signed in gilt at foot of spine. Smooth spines decoratively tooled and lettered in gilt all edges gilt marbled endpapers. Expert and almost invisible minor restoration to corners and spine extremities. Occasional light foxing and/or browning. A wonderful copy. "The house of Aubert was ingenious in marketing its products. Its lithographs.were published one by one in periodicals like Le charivari and together in suites by the same artist without letterpress. Still a third form of publication was in albums made up of lithographs by several artists with accompanying texts. These collections most commonly took the form of volumes with the generic title Paris comique which consisted of twenty colored lithographs accompanied by quite unrelated texts. Aubert remarked that the resulting hodgepodge had 'a plan that is easy to follow for it consists in not having any' and in fact this was indeed a frugal procedure for reusing old texts and already published plates. The interest of the various volumes of Paris comique resides entirely in the lithographs they happen to contain. It can be considerable however since Daumier and Gavarni are the predominant artists. Le musée pour rire represents a more considerable effort on the part of Aubert. To accompany 150 lithographs including forty-five by Daumier among them twenty-seven from Croquis d'expressions and eight from La galerie physionomique and forty-two by Gavarni new commentaries were commissioned on each plate all except two by Alhoy and Huart. Daumier's lithographs were trimmed slightly and their captions were relettered. The designs of the other artists were provided with decorative frames. The whole was then published in three handsome volumes and in copies with expert contemporary coloring like this one Le musée pour rire is among the freshest and most attractive of romantic illustrated books" Ray The Art of the French Illustrated Book. Le Musée pour Rire "contained 150 lithographs by Daumier Gavarni Bouchot Traviès etc. These are re-impressions some of them in mirror image which had previously already been used for publication in Le Charivari. Most prints of the series 'Croquis d'expressions' are contained in the book. The name of the series is missing and the texts were printed in a different type than in the original Charivari version. We do not consider these prints original lithographies but rather prints 'after Daumier'" The Daumier Register at http://www.daumier-register.org. Ray The Art of the French Illustrated Book 164.

As Nancy Olsen points out in Gavarni: The Carnival Lithographs the majority of Gavarni's carnival lithographs reflect his interest in the small groups that drift away from the crowd as a consequence of the romantic liaisons that preoccupied many of the participants at a masked ball.

Housed together in the original quarter scored calf over mottled blue boards clamshell case with original blue cloth ties. "In Les Débardeurs.a series of sixty-six lithographs published in Le Charivari between 1840 and 1843 Gavarni depicts a variation on the most famous of the costumes he designed for the masquerade balls the débardeur stevedore. The braided wig loose shirt black velvet trousers fastened with brass buttons and tied with a fringed sash are derived from the working costume of the longshoreman or stevedore who unloaded the barges that traveled up the Seine to Paris. As Nancy Olsen points out in Gavarni: The Carnival Lithographs the majority of Gavarni's carnival lithographs reflect his interest in the small groups that drift away from the crowd as a consequence of the romantic liaisons that preoccupied many of the participants at a masked ball. Intrigue was the name of the gave and the information being conveyed in this scene comes in all probability from an agent provocateur" Beatrice Farwell The Charged Image: French Lithographic Caricature 1816-1848 p. 88. "This is the most considerable of the several series of lithographs devoted by Gavarni to the balls which were a passion with him. He was an organizer and patron of the more elegant and he found the popular balls at the Opera and elsewhere an attractive subject for his designs. Théophile Gautier who believed that at this period Parisian balls had virtually 'effaced the former carnival of Venice' called Gavarni 'their depicter and historian.' As dancers throw themselves into their round of pleasure 'a man stands with his back against a pillar; he watches he listens he observes.' And the following day on stone 'he lends his own wit to all the masks perhaps stupid in themselves; he sums up in a profound word the chit-chat of the foyer; he translates into a pleasant legend the hoarse excitement of the hall.' Quoted by Lemoisne I 120" Ray The Art of the French Illustrated Book. Such elements have made Gavarni's carnival lithographs among his finest most famous and desired works of art. There was another similar title by Gavarni Le Carnaval. Paris: Chez Aubert 1838-39 which had twenty-seven completely different plates This series of plates by Gavarni is quite rare; only three copies are listed in OCLC and it has not sold at auction in the last forty-two years. In the nineteenth century the Paris carnival was the most extravagant among the European carnivals. It would last for several days and consist of masked balls both private and public street processions and feasting during which vibrant street scenes costumes and decorated floats would be on display.
