J. J. Grandville Art

French, 1803-1847

J. J. Grandville, was a French caricaturist. His ability for political provocation made his work with great impact. He worked in a wide variety of formats, from his first job illustrating the parlor game Old Maid, to illustrated newspaper strips of which he was a master. Though the designs of Grandville are occasionally unnatural and absurd, they usually display keen analysis of character and marvellous inventive ingenuity, and his humor is always tempered and refined by delicacy of sentiment and a vein of sober thoughtfulness.

    The movement in a Chanel J12 watch depends on the timepiece. Older watches usually feature a Calibre 12.1 movement, while newer pieces have a Caliber 3.1 transparent movement manufactured by Chanel. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Chanel J12 watches.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    To tell if a Chanel J12 is real, first look at the face. If it says "automatic," but you hear the second hand ticking, the timepiece is likely a fake. You can also turn the timepiece over and examine the back of the case. Authentic watches will have the serial number but not the style and reference numbers. To be absolutely sure, however, it is recommended that you work with a professional appraiser or watch expert to help determine the authenticity of a given Chanel watch. On 1stDibs, shop a range of Chanel watches from vetted sellers.
