EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the cover of "Le Don Quixote", number 333, Satirique en Colours. Created in 1880 by Charles Gilbert-Martin, this illustration is a powerful depiction of the political and social climate of the time. The image features various elements that symbolize key themes such as anticlericalism, evictions, combative attitudes, and laicisation. At first glance, one's attention is drawn to a duel taking place at a grand door with an aureole above it. This scene represents the opposition and rivalry between different factions within society. The presence of Saint Peter adds an interesting religious touch to the composition. The artist skillfully incorporates anachronistic elements like Jules Ferry's portrait into this satirical representation. Ferry was known for his role in promoting secular education and separating church from state during his tenure as French Prime Minister. Through this artwork, Gilbert-Martin challenges traditional norms and highlights societal issues prevalent during the late 19th century. It serves as a visual commentary on politics, religion, and power dynamics within France at that time. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into history while also provoking thought about timeless themes that continue to shape our world today.
