EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Two women fighting with stockings filled with sand" captures a moment of intense conflict and amusement on the streets of Paris in the early 20th century. The colour litho, created by an anonymous French School artist, showcases two women engaged in a fierce duel using stockings filled with sand as weapons. The image, originally published in Le Petit Journal on November 1st, 1903, depicts a unique form of street brawl that was both entertaining and shocking to the crowds gathered around. Dressed in skirts and dresses, these brave fighters confront each other head-on while cheering spectators add to the excitement. The scene reflects not only a physical battle but also symbolizes larger themes such as confrontation and clash between individuals. It offers insight into the culture of France during that time period when duels were still seen as a means to settle disputes. This intriguing artwork from Bridgeman Images transports us back in time to witness this extraordinary spectacle firsthand. It serves as a reminder of how historical photographs can capture moments that are both fascinating and thought-provoking, allowing us to explore different aspects of human behavior throughout history.
