EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "L Assiette au Beurre, number 209, Satirique en couleurs, 1905_4_1: Metiers, Gendarmerie - Drums" transports us back to early 20th century France. The artwork showcases the satirical nature of the renowned French magazine L'Assiette au Beurre. In this particular illustration by Fernand Louis Gottlob (1873-1935), we witness a scene depicting the profession of gendarmes and their association with music. A group of uniformed gendarmes is shown playing various musical instruments including drums and tambourines. Their military uniforms add an element of authority to this otherwise lighthearted image. The artist's attention to detail is evident in his intricate engraving technique that brings life to each character depicted in the print. The composition highlights not only the importance of music but also its role in society during that era. This historical piece offers a glimpse into both French culture and labor practices at the turn of the century. It serves as a reminder that even those tasked with maintaining law and order can find joy through artistic expression. With its rich symbolism and masterful execution, this lithograph captures a moment frozen in time—a testament to both artistry and social commentary prevalent during this period in history.
