EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous engraving captures the chaotic and comical scene aboard a French liner during a stormy voyage. The passengers, depicted in exaggerated poses, are struggling to maintain their balance as the boat battles against powerful waves. The artist's satire is evident in their portrayal of seasickness, with some individuals clutching onto railings for dear life while others desperately search for relief from their queasy stomachs. The turbulent sea and dark clouds looming overhead add to the sense of danger and adventure that comes with crossing the channel. Despite the challenging conditions, there is an underlying sense of camaraderie among the passengers as they navigate through this shared experience together. This artwork was originally published in La Vie Parisienne on October 16th, 1880, capturing a moment in time when travel by sea was both exciting and treacherous. It serves as a reminder of how far transportation has come since then, highlighting the evolution of passenger transportation and modes of transport. With its witty depiction of maritime mishaps and playful satire on French culture, this print offers viewers a glimpse into both historical travel experiences and timeless human foibles.
