EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the cover of "The Laughter", number 321, Satirical en Couleurs. Created in 1909 by Charles Leandre, this illustration titled "Les camelots du Roy" delves into themes of anticlericalism, royalism, and the failure of the Church. The artwork cleverly depicts Marianne, a symbol of France, alongside a skeleton representing the religious order. Leandre's skillful use of caricature brings to life the opposition between monarchy and republicanism during this tumultuous period in French history. The engraving portrays an old man crying out in sadness while wearing a crown on his head. This poignant image serves as a synecdoche for the struggles faced by those who supported royalist movements. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph add depth and intensity to its message. The pinning together of various symbols such as clergy attire and grayling further emphasizes the complexity of political dynamics at play during that time. "The Laughter" was undoubtedly an influential journal that captured significant events and sentiments from early 20th century France. This print not only offers us a glimpse into historical satire but also reminds us how art can serve as a powerful medium for social commentary. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from Charles Leandre's collection, allowing us to appreciate his artistic prowess even today.
