EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "L Assiette au Beurre, number 185, Satirique en couleurs" takes us back to the early 20th century in France. Created by Maurice Radiguet and featuring the work of Meyer Arthur, this colorful engraving showcases a fascinating blend of fantasy and social commentary. In the midst of vibrant hues of green, we are introduced to an imaginary character - a fairy-like woman symbolizing journalism and business. Her piercing eyesight reflects her role as an observer and commentator on society's vices. One such vice depicted here is absinthe, a popular alcoholic drink during that time known for its association with alcoholism. The image captures the essence of French press culture in the early 1900s, where satire played a significant role in critiquing societal norms. The use of color adds depth to this satirical piece, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in its whimsical world while contemplating its underlying message. As we gaze upon this enchanting artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and transport us to different eras. It serves as a visual reminder that even over a century later, issues surrounding alcohol consumption and media influence continue to be relevant topics worth exploring.
