EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting cover of the Almanach of the Comice Agricole de Ploemeur from 1844, featuring the beloved character Guignol. Created by an anonymous artist, this French engraving transports us to a world where marionettes come alive and agriculture takes center stage. Guignol, a mischievous clown-like figure, is depicted with vibrant colors and intricate details that bring him to life. With his distinctive Breton attire and playful expression, he exudes a sense of joy and entertainment. The backdrop of Brittany's picturesque countryside adds depth to the scene, emphasizing its connection to agricultural traditions. The image captures not only Guignol's whimsical nature but also highlights the importance of games in French culture during the 19th century. Games were not merely recreational activities; they served as social gatherings that brought communities together. This cover art serves as a reminder of how playfulness can unite people across different backgrounds. Leonard de Selva skillfully photographs this historical piece with great attention to detail, allowing viewers to appreciate every nuance in its composition. As part of a private collection and out of copyright restrictions, this print offers an opportunity for art enthusiasts to own a piece that encapsulates both cultural heritage and artistic brilliance.
