Jean-Jacques Grandville

Jean-Jacques Grandville, whose real name was Jean Ignace Isidore Gérard, was a 19th-century French illustrator and caricaturist, famous for his drawings that are at once satirical, poetic, and whimsical. Coming from a family of Lorraine miniaturists, he made his mark in Paris with his portraits of anthropomorphic animals and allegorical scenes, in which he cleverly twists reality with unique finesse. His work, marked by imagination, dream, and the absurd, deeply influenced Symbolist and Surrealist artists. Grandville notably illustrated Les Métamorphoses du jour, Un autre monde, and fables by La Fontaine. His rich and dreamlike universe naturally resonates with divinatory arts, where symbols and visual stories open the doors to interpretation.
