EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "We live between ourselves, we hate the nuisances and the visits from Scenes from the Private and Public Life of Animals" takes us back to 19th century France. Created by Louis-Henri Breviere, this wood engraving showcases his exceptional talent in capturing anthropomorphic scenes. The image transports us to a cozy country home where animals have taken on human-like characteristics. Gathered around a hearth, they exude warmth and camaraderie as they engage in everyday activities. The attention to detail is remarkable, with each animal displaying unique traits that mirror our own behaviors. As smoke rises from a cooking pot suspended over the fire, it hints at an inviting aroma wafting through the air. This scene evokes feelings of comfort and contentment within the animal community living harmoniously together. Louis-Henri Breviere's artistic prowess shines through in this masterful engraving. His collaboration with renowned artist Jean Ignace Isidore Gerard (also known as J. J Grandville) brings these enchanting characters to life. Their work captures not only the essence of animals but also offers subtle commentary on human society. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece serves as a testament to Breviere's contribution to art history during the 19th century. It invites viewers into a world where animals become relatable figures navigating their own private and public lives.
