EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print titled "Paon assis sur son fauteuil" transports us back to the 19th century. The image showcases a majestic peacock perched regally on its ornate armchair, surrounded by intricate illustrations created by JJ Granville (also known as J. J. Grandville). The engravings were skillfully crafted by Porret for the section entitled "Guide-ane a l'usage des animaux qui veulent parvenir aux honneurs" written by Honore De Balzac in his work "Scenes de la vie privee et publique des animaux". Published in Paris in 1842 under the direction of P. -J. Stahl (pseudonym of Pierre-Jules Hetzel), this piece is part of a collection called "Etudes de moeurs contemporaines". It offers an insightful glimpse into contemporary animal behavior through satirical narratives. The composition exudes elegance and sophistication, capturing both the beauty of nature and the artistry of illustration during that era. With its meticulous details and striking contrast, this print evokes a sense of nostalgia while showcasing the timeless appeal of classic French artwork. Preserved within a private collection, this remarkable piece was captured by A© Jean Duvallon, who has expertly preserved its historical significance for all to appreciate. As we gaze upon this exquisite creation, we are reminded of the enduring power that art possesses to transcend time and captivate our imaginations.
