The Warrior, a hint of intimidation in his gaze from an 1800s illustration for Le Rire. A souvenir of Volendam. But remember, not all inheritances are a sweet sinecure, as depicted in Le testament du dompteur. Pip and the Convict's intense stare in this 19th-century chromolitho may leave you feeling uneasy. Affability, a hand-coloured etching with aquatint from 1795, shows even the kindest of faces can hide a complex interior. Satire on France's abandonment of Alsace to Germany, another Le Rire illustration, highlights the harsh realities of political power plays. And lastly, a medical examination may leave you feeling vulnerable, much like being on someone's black list or amidst Billingsgate Brutes.
