EDITORS COMMENTS
La Ville En Feu! The City on Fire! (circa 1901) is an atmospheric and captivating illustration by the renowned French caricaturist, Albert Robida, from the album "Les Maîtres de Caricature" issue 10, published by March of the Women Collection. This evocative print showcases an ornately designed bridge, its intricate details lost in the shadows as a darkening, hazy sky looms ominously overhead. The bridge, a marvel of engineering and artistry, stands defiant against the encroaching flames, its arches reaching towards the heavens. The scene is further enlivened by an audience of monstrous gargoyles, their grotesque features illuminated by the flickering glow of the fire. Their stone faces, etched with expressions of awe, fear, and curiosity, add an element of whimsy and wonder to the otherwise ominous image. The gargoyles, guardians of the bridge, seem to be observing the city's transformation with a mixture of concern and fascination. The date of this illustration, circa 1901, places it at the turn of the 20th century, a time of great change and innovation. The use of dramatic lighting and intricate detail in this print reflects the artistic style of the time, which celebrated the beauty and complexity of the world around them. La Ville En Feu! is not only a stunning work of art but also a reminder of the power and beauty of nature, even in its most destructive form. It invites us to ponder the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring allure of the city, even in the face of adversity.
