EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the cover of "The Don Quixote", number 309, Satirique en Colours. Created in 1880, this artwork by Charles Gilbert-Martin is a powerful political caricature that delves into various themes such as senatorial painting, anticlericalism, and the influence of dominant figures and institutions. The illustration features prominent statesmen from the era including Gambetta Leon and Simon Jules, along with Martel Louis. It also highlights the presence of Jesuites within French society during that time. The artist's skillful depiction brings forth a satirical commentary on these subjects. Intriguing elements like an armchair symbolizing power, a bell representing authority or control over religious orders, and a cane denoting leadership can be observed throughout the composition. These visual cues add depth to the overall message conveyed by this thought-provoking piece.
