EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Arrest of the Leclere brothers, two of the most feared bandits of Aisne, France" takes us back to rural France in the early 1900s. The colour lithograph by Carrey captures a moment of intense action and drama as these notorious criminals are apprehended by the police. The Leclere brothers were known throughout Aisne for their audacious acts of banditry, striking fear into the hearts of locals. This image showcases their arrest in a picturesque countryside setting, highlighting both the beauty and danger that coexisted during this time. The composition is filled with tension and movement as law enforcement officers surround the brothers, who appear defiant yet trapped. The arresting officers stand tall and determined, showcasing their bravery in facing these dangerous outlaws. This illustration was originally created for Le Petit Parisien newspaper on May 2nd, 1909. It serves as a reminder of an era when crime was prevalent even in remote areas like Aisne. The image provides a glimpse into French history and culture at a time when brigands roamed freely across the country's landscapes. Through this artwork, we can appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance in capturing an important event from over a century ago.
