Under the Boot, 1915 - A Powerful Depiction of Repression and Pride
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white lithograph print by Theophile Alexandre Steinlen, titled "Under the Boot, 1915" transports us back to the tumultuous era of World War I. Created in the early 20th century, this artwork serves as a poignant reminder of the devastating consequences that war inflicts upon nations and its people. The image portrays a French soldier standing proudly on top of a fallen comrade's corpse. Dressed in military attire with his boots firmly planted on his fallen companion, he symbolizes both strength and sorrow. The artist skillfully captures the emotions experienced during wartime – pride in one's country juxtaposed with the harsh reality of death. Steinlen's use of lithography adds depth to this thought-provoking piece. The black over fawn tint on thick off-white wove paper creates a stark contrast that intensifies our focus on these two soldiers amidst their surroundings. Their positioning within the frame draws attention to their sacrifice while inviting contemplation about war's impact. As we gaze upon this historical artwork displayed at The Art Institute of Chicago, we are reminded not only of France's experience during World War I but also how art can serve as a powerful medium for expressing complex human emotions. Through Steinlen's masterful technique and composition, he invites us to reflect upon themes such as repression, bravery, loss, and national identity. "Under the Boot" stands as an enduring testament to those who have fought valiantly for their countries throughout history—a timeless tribute captured within this remarkable lithograph by Theophile Alexandre Steinlen.
