EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating coloured engraving, titled "Pitous Mid-Lent" takes us back to the late 19th century in France. The print, published by Pellerin & Cie, Imagerie D'Epinal, captures a moment of celebration during the mid-lent period. In this lively scene, we see a group of soldiers from the French army joyfully indulging in festivities. Completely unaware of any trouble that may arise from their actions, they are seen partying and rejoicing with great enthusiasm. The comic strip-like illustration adds an element of humor to the image as one soldier appears to be quite drunk. The artist beautifully depicts the military uniforms worn by these troops, showcasing their dedication and commitment even amidst moments of leisure. This print not only provides insight into historical celebrations but also highlights the camaraderie among soldiers during this time. As we delve into this artwork's details, it becomes evident that it is more than just a simple depiction of merriment; it represents a brief respite for these armed forces who face great tribulations daily. It serves as a reminder that even in times of conflict or hardship, people find solace in coming together to celebrate life's joys. "Pitous Mid-Lent" offers us a glimpse into both French culture and European history while inviting us to appreciate the festive spirit that transcends borders and unites people across different nations and backgrounds.
