Each head presents a distinct emotional state, demonstrating Boilly’s fascination with physiognomy and emotional taxonomy. The Grimaces series forms the core of Boilly’s reputation as a chronicler of human expression. These works were admired not only as caricature but also as quasi-scientific studies of emotion. Condition report: Minor spotting and age toning. Colours remain fresh. Technique: Lithograph with contemporary hand-colouring Maker: Louis-Léopold Boilly, France, published London c.1823–28 See less
