dc.descriptionUndated, but possibly c. 1839. Plate 57 from the Robert Macaire "Caricaturana" series by Honoré Daumier. The following translation of the caption appears in Le Dentiste D’Autrefois : 60 Reproductions, annotées par Georges Dagen (Paris : Editions de la Revue “La Semaine Dentaire” [no date]): " ‘Confound it Mr. Dentist, you have pulled out two good teeth and have left the two bad ones’ Robert Macaire (aside) ‘The devil’ (aloud) ‘No doubt and for good reasons, there is always time to extract the bad ones ; as to the others, they would have decayed and caused you pain. A false set will never make you suffer, and it is of a better kind ; people wear nothing but that now’ ". Acquired from the collection of Dr. Arrigo Piperno of Rome. Original piece measures 36 X 28 cm.en_US
