Unit price perAbout the Artwork:
Amédéé Varin (active mid-19th century) was a French caricaturist known for his witty and often bizarre illustrations. While details about his life remain scarce, his surviving works offer a glimpse into the playful and satirical artistic circles of 19th-century France. Varin's "Carotte conjugale" ("Married Carrot") is a prime example, using a common vegetable to deliver a humorous and thought-provoking commentary on marital relations.
The artwork features a woman's face and torso forming into a carrot. She is garbed in the greens of the vegetable and embraces, presumably, her husband who is also depicted in vegetable form. The couple appears to be situated in a shared home on a sofa, with artwork of another vegetable persona hung on the wall behind them.
