EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Humorous Glimpse into the Franco-Prussian War This colour lithograph by Cham, also known as Amedee Charles Henri de Noe, takes us back to the 19th century during the infamous Siege of Paris. Titled "Plus de viande! Allons donc!" (More meat! Come on!), this satirical cartoon offers a humorous perspective on the scarcity of food during that time. The scene depicts a bustling street in Paris, where a hungry crowd gathers around a small woman holding an empty plate. Her exaggerated expression and comically large muff highlight her desperation for sustenance. On the other side of the print stands a man dressed in traditional French attire, equally famished and bewildered by their predicament. Cham's clever caricature captures both the absurdity and severity of food shortages faced by Parisians during this tumultuous period. The artist uses satire to critique not only the shortage itself but also societal attitudes towards it. Through this artwork, we are transported to an era defined by conflict and deprivation. It serves as a reminder of how art can provide social commentary even amidst challenging times. As we gaze upon this satirical masterpiece, we cannot help but appreciate its wit while reflecting on historical events that shaped our world today.
