Pointillé Engraving, Entitled Marche Incroyable, Boilly Et Bonnefoy, 18th C

pkversion — Fri, 11 Oct 2024 23:29:32 +0000

Very nice engraving entitled “Marche Incroyable” which represents an amusing parade, gathering different characters in Directoire period costumes.

Period: 18th century
Edition : 1798
Dimensions: H :74 x W :66cm

Description: Technique of the image: engraving. – burin. – stipple engraving
In the middle: “Registered at the Bibliothèque Nationale, as the property of the publishers.

Engraver: Jacques Bonnefoy
Painter of the model : Louis-Léopold Boilly (1761-1845), French painter, draughtsman, lithographer.

This print, which brings together several caricatures given successively to the public, is of a very original and striking effect.

Among the groups of which this march is formed, one notices the scene of a money merchant, whose features and attitude are of a striking truth.

Some marvellous, some unbelievable, some dupes, and above all a supporter of the famous revolutionary committees giving his arm to one of those famous knitters, worthy priestesses of the cult of Robespierre.

Behind the march, we see one of the elegant men of the day knocked down in his cabriolet by the impetuous movement of his frightened horse. No doubt at the sight of the characteristic physiognomies of this truly “incredible” march. ”

In a note loaded without modification from the Inventaire du fonds français, graveurs du XVIIIe siècle, it is noted that many of these figures were painted or drawn by Louis-Léopold Boilly separately.
One example is a drawing entitled “Le Cabriolet renversé”.

A very beautiful observation, so disturbingly real, of the turbulent times of the French Revolution.

Background information on the history of school wall charts:
The idea to upgrade every day school life by using pictures was supported in the late 18th century by Johann Bernhard Basedow. In 1774 he published a four-volume book “Elementarwerk” which combined pictures, text and information with merely hundred copperplates. Modern printing methods enabled the spread from rich private schools to rural grade schools. From 1820-1836 the oldest mentioned series of wall charts were published with the range of six booklets including 63 large sized charts. The rising 20th century was the golden age for publishers printing wall charts. Artists Masterly performed pictures which combined the subject-specific standards of a scientist with the standards given by an educator and finally created a magnificent art work.
