EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Grave robbers" takes us back to the early 20th century, depicting a chilling scene of heartless crime in a French cemetery. The colour lithograph showcases two audacious teenagers, aged sixteen and seventeen, shamelessly stealing jewelry from the lifeless body of a woman. Their callous act is illuminated by the macabre setting of tombstones, crypts, and coffins. Published as an illustration for Le Petit Journal on February 9th, 1908, this image captures the dark underbelly of society during that time. It serves as a stark reminder that even in death's embrace, no one is safe from the clutches of criminals. The composition evokes feelings of shock and disbelief at witnessing such brazen acts committed against the deceased. The stolen jewels glimmer with ill-gotten gains while contrasting sharply against the somber backdrop. Through this artwork, we are transported to an era where graveyards were not only places for mourning but also hunting grounds for thieves seeking valuable treasures left behind by those who had passed on. As we contemplate this haunting image captured by Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of humanity's capacity for both compassion and cruelty – even within sacred spaces meant for eternal rest.
