EDITORS COMMENTS
La moderne terreur. Illustration for Le Pele-Mele, 1906 (colour litho) captures the chaotic and humorous scene of a speeding car accident in early 20th century France. Created by Benjamin Rabier, this satirical cartoon showcases the reckless and irresponsible behavior of a French motorist. In this comical image, we see dogs dressed as passengers inside the car, adding an amusing twist to the already entertaining scene. The driver's lack of caution is evident as he crashes into a milestone on the road, causing a collision that epitomizes the dangers of motoring during that time period. Rabier's clever use of satire highlights not only the perils associated with early automobiles but also pokes fun at societal attitudes towards driving. This satirical drawing serves as scathing commentary on French culture and its love-hate relationship with cars. With its vibrant colors and exaggerated characters, "La moderne terreur" offers viewers a glimpse into European transportation history while providing light-hearted entertainment. It reminds us that even in times past, accidents were not uncommon on our roads. This print from Fine Art Finder invites us to reflect on how far we have come in terms of road safety while appreciating timeless humor through art.
