EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the cover of "The Grelot" number 706, a satirical publication from 1884. The illustration by Alfred Le Petitty depicts an intriguing political alliance between Jules Ferry and Otto von Bismarck, representing France and Germany respectively. In the image, we see Ferry and Bismarck depicted as horsemen, with their respective countries symbolized by a dog for Germany and horses for France. Le Petitty's artistic talent shines through in this engraving, capturing the essence of international relations during that time period. The exaggerated features of both men add a touch of humor to the piece, with elongated noses giving them a caricature-like appearance. "The Grelot" was known for its sharp wit and biting commentary on political affairs. This particular issue focuses on the agreement between France and Prussia (Germany) at that time. It is fascinating to observe how such historical events were portrayed in popular media during the 19th century. Overall, this print provides us with a glimpse into the world of political satire in late 19th-century Europe. It serves as a reminder of how art has long been used as a medium to express opinions and critique societal norms.
