EDITORS COMMENTS
This colorful lithograph from 1902 titled "L'impot" captures the essence of French humor and satire during the early 20th century. The illustration, created by an anonymous artist from the French School, was featured in Le Pele-Mele on January 12th of that year. In this amusing scene, we find ourselves inside a bustling bank where a frustrated customer is engaged in a comical interaction with a female teller. The woman appears exasperated as she listens to the customer's complaints about taxes or perhaps some other financial matter. Surrounding them are various characters including domestic servants and other customers who add to the chaotic atmosphere. The satirical nature of this drawing highlights not only the frustrations faced by individuals dealing with bureaucracy but also pokes fun at societal norms and expectations. Through clever caricatures and exaggerated expressions, it offers viewers an entertaining glimpse into everyday life in France during this period. With its vibrant colors and whimsical details, this print serves as both a humorous commentary on banking practices and an insightful reflection of French culture at that time. It reminds us that even amidst serious matters like money management, there is always room for laughter and lightheartedness.
