EDITORS COMMENTS
Vieux Habits! Vieux Galons! (Old Habits! Old Decorations!) - This illustration, dated circa 1901, transports us back in time to an elegant gentleman's dressing room. The dapper figure, dressed in a formal suit and adorned with a top hat under his arm and a cane at the ready, takes a reflective moment as his gaze falls upon the old French military uniforms hanging in his wardrobe. The uniforms, adorned with intricate galons (decorative braid), evoke a sense of history and tradition. The scene is reminiscent of an album page from "Les Maîtres de la Caricature," a renowned French satirical publication. The illustration, with its rich detail and nostalgic charm, invites us to ponder the connection between the past and the present, and the enduring allure of tradition.
