DAUMIER'S LAW
Paul: “I wanted to get into some minimalist music so I came to the studio and started trying to think of very simple pieces, based around the theme of injustice. .. I got intrigued by the idea of thinking ‘how few notes could I use, then?’ You start off thinking of just one note and then you embellish it a bit, trying to keep in the back of your mind to be as minimal as possible. And in the end I think I abondoned the idea of minimalism and just got into this slightly experimental music.”
Linda: “I got every book on Daumier and read all about his life and thought that it would be incredible to do a visual thing for Paul’s music. Daumier worked for a newspaper as a satirical cartoonist and went to prison a few times for his Art. A lot of his work was about injustice and it’s a theme that is so right for our times.”
Soon the two projects came together.
Geoff Dunbar: "Paul and Linda called and asked if I would like to make a film on Daumier and I said yes,”, “Before Rupert came along I had made a film on Toulouse-Lautrec so the Daumier idea was very exciting.”
“Paul did six pieces of music and they each had a title – Right, Wrong, Justice, Punishment, Payment, and Release. Then we pored through the works of Daumier, got everything that was available, and structured the story from the material. And where we had to link it we invented ‘in the style of’. We hung the story on one character, a man from one drawing by Daumier.”
The movie was premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in March 1992, and won the top prize at the British Academy Of Film And Television Arts in 1993. Paul & Linda are credited as co-writers and producers of the movie.

Women's coiffures for evening dress in Paul Gavarni's Journal des gens du Monde, 1834. Art by Gavarni (Rijksmuseum).
Apollo knot
(F)
Period: 1824–1838.
False hair plaited into a loop or loops and wired to stand above the head; for evening and some day hair styles.
— Valerie Cumming, The Dictionary of Fashion History (second edition)
The satirical magazine Le Charivari also depicted the Apollo knot in this 1832 cartoon detail by Honoré Daumier (Met Museum).
"The Mayeux knot, known as Apollo." I've found some references to hairstyles by Mayeux, but I'm not sure if this was a real person or a caricature persona.
