About the Item
Early 20th century French folk art oil on canvas, advertising M. Joquelet the dentist and Mme Irma the snake charmer. A wonderful piece of social history.
At the turn of the century you could go to the fair and get any troublesome teeth pulled by M. Joquelet (arracheur de dents) apparently painlessly!? Mme Irma would captivate you with her snake charming prowess. All the fun of the fair!
This is a real talking piece and a record of social history wrapped up in a highly colourful and naively painted advertising canvas. Beautifully strong lettering and the painted detailing to the corners of the canvas hint at the art nouveau period. Two eye catching pieces of folk art in one unusual object.
Measurements are of the painting with the carry handle. The canvas alone measures 90.5cm x 59.5cm x 2.2cm.
See included in the photos a postcard from 1907 of Joquelet and Irma with advertising board.

Early 20th Century Southern American Folk Art Painting
Located in Chicago, IL
A captivating and intriguing early 20th century Southern American folk art panel, found in Mississippi, depicting a figure with what appears to be African tribal headgear, and wearing a white collared shirt with black suit jacket. The line work and attention to detail is extraordinary and mysterious, with the artist choosing to incorporate a natural knot in the board to form the mouth of the figure, and the left half of the drawing showing shading, but seemingly left unfinished. The frame is not terribly old, and is constructed from splatter-painted boards...
