Allegorical painting referring of course to the Luncheon on the Grass by Edouard Manet. The characters live a snapshot of which one is a spectator.

Allegorical painting referring of course to the Luncheon on the Grass by Edouard Manet. The characters live a snapshot of which one is a spectator. The two dozing and drunken Fauns (satyrs) have already consumed the act, but perhaps they are victims because the Nymph on the left cheerfully distributes a heady wine. It appears to be indeed an ambush. The Nymphs, the driving force behind the action, abuse the three lost Fauns. The breeches hanging from the horn of one of them are unequivocal and complete the reading with an anachronistic fantasy. We see here a reversal of roles, conducive to a reading that can be feminist but above all vengeful. We are therefore witnessing this moment of a frozen second where the protagonist in the center does not understand what is happening to him: a haggard and amused look at the same time. Stunned, he does not yet know what sauce he is going to eat when we, the spectators, have already understood everything. As the painting is large, the frame can be sent dismantled, accompanying the rolled up canvas.

Nicolas Lebel, alias Lebelen, is a contemporary French painter. Since 2016, he has been painting as a professional artist. Starting from the exercise of draping, Lebelen will explore the onirism/dreamlike to finally meet his "Sleepwalkers" a year later. 

He will freeze their dozing escapades in his "Sleepers" collection as they "fall asleep" stretched out on the ground or perched on a stepladder. It is not by chance that trees are used; rather, there was a requirement for verticality and an environment that supported the characters' movements. The finished artworks are neither entirely tangible nor entirely confusing.

Under the façade of classical painting, his "1900" collection transports us to a romanticized and dramatized version of the Belle Époque. He frequently draws inspiration from great authors like Maupassant, Zola, and Dumas and creates amusing scenarios with postures and customs that are completely anachronistic.

Nicolas Lebel was born in 1981, in France. He exhibited his works nationally.
