Dear Daumier Friends,

It may not quite be a “Daumier Code”….. but did you know that there are
many hidden messages in Daumier's lithographs besides the well-known pear
shape symbolizing Louis-Philippe and thus avoiding censorship rejection?

There are a number of obvious symbols and encryptions, which are well
known to Daumier scholars and documented in the literature. But would you
ever suspect a deeper meaning behind the lithograph showing an old man in
a nightgown contemplating his aging appearance (DR744: Le coton tombe,
l'homme reste, et le mollet s'évanouit)? Or: what does DR1716 "Aspect de
la Seine de Paris à Chatou" have to do with Corot's birthday? And: what
would "Récriminations" (Counter-accusations), DR1720, a seemingly harmless
discussion between two neighbours about their common border, have to do
with politics?

You can now find these and many more “encrypted lithographs” explained in
detail in the Daumier-Register. We have created a new section with a
search link in addition to the existing ones called “New Research
Results”. The first fifty articles have just been inserted in this new
section, and during the coming months we will constantly add more
findings. Thanks to the initiative of the dedicated Daumier scholar and
encryption specialist, Alex Djordjevic, who over the last years has made
hundreds of highly interesting discoveries in Daumier’s work, we have
together been able to create a platform and to edit and publish a plethora
of fascinating discoveries.

Go to the list by clicking on

or go directly to
http://www.daumier-register.org/werklist.php?x_news=1&z_news=%3D%2C%27%2C%27
to see the list of articles. You will find the result of in-depth research
and learn about interesting and unexpected historic contexts. We hope you
will enjoy reading the articles; please do come back and find out about
new additions.

We would appreciate receiving your comments about this new section.

Best regards,
