About the Item

A sculpture of the portrait of François, Marquis de Barbé-Marbois originally crated by Honoré Daumier ( French, 1808 - 1879). The sculpture made of carved wood is signed in the bottom by the artist " Austin Productions" and dated " 1963" . The sculpture is sitting on a square light color wood base. About Honoré Daumier: Honoré-Victorin Daumier (French February 26, 1808 – February 10, 1879) was a French painter, sculptor, and printmaker, whose many works offer commentary on the social and political life in France, from the Revolution of 1830 to the fall of the second Napoleonic Empire in 1870. He earned a living throughout most of his life producing caricatures and cartoons of political figures and satirizing the behavior of his countrymen in newspapers and periodicals, for which he became well known in his lifetime and is still known today. He was a republican democrat who attacked the bourgeoisie, the church, lawyers and the judiciary, politicians, and the monarchy. He was jailed for several months in 1832 after the publication of Gargantua, a particularly offensive and discourteous depiction of King Louis-Philippe. - Wikipedia Dimensions: 8” H x 5.75” W x 5.5” D
