EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of 19th-century Parisian life with its humorous depiction of "Baths in Paris; Cartoon by Cham". Created by renowned French artist Amedee Charles Henri de Noe, also known as Cham, this cartoon offers a satirical commentary on the bustling city's public bathing culture. In this comical scene, we see a crowded pool area filled with caricatured individuals from all walks of life. The artist skillfully portrays their exaggerated features and expressions, inviting viewers to join in the laughter. From elegant ladies delicately dipping their toes into the water to boisterous gentlemen engaging in animated conversations, each character adds depth and charm to this whimsical composition. The intricate engravings showcase Cham's exceptional talent for capturing both physical likeness and social dynamics. As our eyes wander through the image, we are transported back in time to witness an amusing slice of everyday life in France during that era. Preserved within a private collection, this remarkable artwork has been expertly photographed by Leonard de Selva. His keen eye for detail ensures that every line and shade is faithfully reproduced, allowing art enthusiasts to appreciate Cham's genius even if they cannot view it firsthand. With its delightful blend of humor and historical significance, this print serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of French artistry while offering a glimpse into one facet of Parisian society long gone but not forgotten.
