Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Dover Edition. 135 Pages Containing 120 Great Daumier Lithographs. Light wear to corners and edges of the front cover. No other defects noted. Honore-Victorin Daumier (1808-1879), the great French caricaturist of the nineteenth century, is one of the preeminent satirists of all time,…and perhaps the world's finest cartoonist. This collection contains 120 of his superb lithographs, most of them originally published in various Parisian magazines, many of them rare and unusual. The selection ranges over Daumier's whole career, from his early and caustic anti-government drawings in 1831 to some of his last works before he retired in 1872. Though the volume includes many of Daumier's political attacks and warnings, it concentrates on his eternally popular observations on all facets of the social comedy. We see the manners and morals, the happy days and the times of sadness and tribulation of the poor and middle classes. Daumier's most famous characters and cartoon series are represented -- those on lawyers, judges and the venal court system; the trials of married life; the "follies" of liberated women; the fictitious swindler and the confidence man. Plus the actors, musicians, soldiers, teachers, brats, landlords, tenants, courtesans, butchers, drunks, and the many others. The large and extremely fine reproductions are from original impressions. Charles F. Ramus, art critic and professor of art history, has written a lengthy biographical introduction, and in his Notes on the Plates gives a detailed explanatory commentary on each illustration, with complete translations of the original French captions. Very brief English captions are shown with each lithograph.

Paperback. Condition: New. Language: English. About The Book: In the book of "A Picturesque Tour along the Rivers Ganges and Jumna in India," readers embark on a meticulously crafted odyssey through the enchanting landscapes of India. This literary journey unfolds with a map that charts the Ganges and Jumna River valleys, follow…ed by vibrant portrayals of diverse locales from the ancient capital of Bengal to the sacred temples lining the banks of the Ganges, the captivating city of Benares, and the storied forts and architectural gems like the Taj Mahal. Illustrated with meticulous drawings that bring to life temples, ghats, and panoramas, the book offers a rich visual tapestry of India's multifaceted beauty. It's a captivating exploration of India's cultural and natural treasures. About The Author: Charles Ramus Forrest (1750-1827), an infantry officer and amateur artist, displayed a distinct artistic style in his poetic depictions of the Canadian landscape. While serving as an aide-de-camp in the West Indies with the 90th Regiment from 1778 to 1781, he produced watercolors influenced by artists near Exeter, England, following Francis Towne's style. In Quebec, working under Governor in Chief Earl of Dalhousie, he strived to capture the beauty of Canada and the grandeur of Quebec City, creating four expansive panoramic views. Forrest's art featured a modernist approach, though he remained unacknowledged in Dalhousie's journals. After a brief stay in Canada, he returned to England, publishing a book about his travels in India but leaving a planned work on Canada unpublished.
