Description: Original Paul GAVARNI, lithograph, Le Charivari, mid 1800s, 15" x 10 1/4" - 269 Paul Gavarni was the pen name of Sulpice Guillaume Chevalier (13 January 1804 – 24 November 1866), a French illustrator, born in Paris. Most of his best work appeared in Le Charivari, an llustrated newspaper founded by CHARLES PHILIPON (1800-1862) in Dec. 1832). He was invited by the editor François Caboche to draw for the magazine. Gavarni had never drawn caricatures and was reluctant to accept the request but was persuaded to submit some drawings for approval. This he did and they were accepted but he didn't care for the captions which had been added by the magazine editors. Thereafter, he started writing his own. He executed over 1,000 lithographs for the Charivari over his lifetime.
