EDITORS COMMENTS
The 19th century was a time of great social and cultural change, and this print captures one aspect of that transformation. Titled "Allegory of a Cuckold in the 19th century in 'Le Trombinoscope'" it is a cartoon by B. Moloch from 1882. In this satirical piece, Moloch depicts the concept of cuckoldry, which refers to a man whose wife is unfaithful to him. The allegory explores the theme through humor and exaggeration, using caricatured figures to convey its message. The artwork is part of a private collection and showcases Moloch's talent as an artist. His attention to detail can be seen in the intricate engravings and vibrant colors used throughout the piece. This particular print was featured in "Le Trombinoscope" a publication known for its political satire during that era. It reflects both the societal attitudes towards infidelity at the time as well as serves as commentary on French politics or culture. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into the artistic style and social climate of France during the late 19th century. It reminds us that art has always been used as a means to express ideas, challenge norms, and provoke thought about human nature and society's values.
