EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment of both humor and temptation in Jules Abel Faivre's illustration for the French magazine, Le Rire. The artwork, created on 9th March 1901, showcases Faivre's talent for caricature and satirical commentary.

This artwork not only showcases Faivre's artistic prowess but also reflects the cultural climate of early 20th-century France. It reminds us that even saints are not immune to humorous situations or social critiques. Overall, "The Temptation of St Anthony" is a delightful blend of wit and artistry that continues to captivate viewers with its
