The House of Cards n.d. Pierre Filloeul Derived from the tradition of moralizing prints, the subject of a child building a house of cards became a popular motif during the eighteenth century. This etching is based on a 1735 painting by Chardin, one of the most celebrated treatments of the theme. In the print, Filloeul faithfully reproduces Chardins composition, expressing the ephemeral nature of human endeavors through the image of a boy engrossed in the construction of an object doomed for destruction. In the caption, Filloeul reconnects Chardins image with the moralizing tradition by suggesting that adults still act like children by building foolish projects.. The House of Cards.

The Boat Studio, from The Boat Trip Made 1861 France. In order to paint the river landscape scenes which accorded so well with his temperament and taste, Daubigny decided to build a floating studio that could be positioned to afford the best points of view and to capture the varied effects of natural light. The etchings that resulted in the series The Boat Trip are an early example of the plein-air aesthetic, the practice of working out of doors, which would be wholeheartedly embraced by the Impressionists..
