EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and destruction of the First World War, a French aviator emerges as a beacon of stoicism and bravery. In this cartoon from 1915, published by La Baionnette, two fashionably dressed women gaze in admiration as the aviator nonchalantly smokes a cigarette during a bombardment. Dressed in his flight uniform, complete with cap (kepi), boots, and fur-trimmed coat, the aviator exudes an air of toughness and courage that leaves the women in awe. His unflinching demeanor, in stark contrast to their frilly dresses and delicate accessories, serves as a powerful reminder of the inspiring stories of heroism and resilience that emerged from the trenches of WWI. The cartoon's title, "Stoicism," encapsulates the aviator's unwavering calm and determination in the face of danger. This image, with its timeless appeal and evocative storytelling, continues to inspire and captivate audiences over a century later.
