EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "L Assiette au Beurre, number 13, Satirical in Colours, 1901_6_27" by Camara, Leal de (1877-1948) is a thought-provoking piece that delves into the complexities of colonization and anti-colonialism. The image portrays an allegory filled with symbolism and political commentary. In this artwork, we see a human figure representing England carrying a burden on their back. This burden takes the form of an engraving depicting various scenes related to colonialism. The English bearer appears weary and strained under the weight of this responsibility. The artist skillfully uses caricature to highlight the power dynamics between different nations involved in colonialism. The French and American figures are also depicted as caricatures, emphasizing their roles in this global phenomenon. A significant element within the composition is an earth globe held by the English bearer. This symbolizes how colonial powers viewed themselves as having control over vast territories across continents like North America (specifically referencing Brittany) and Africa. Through this artwork, Leal de Camara invites viewers to reflect on the consequences of imperialism during the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of how these actions shaped history and impacted both colonizers and those being colonized. Overall, this print captures not only historical events but also raises important questions about power dynamics between nations and highlights themes such as nationalism, oppression, resistance against colonization, and its lasting effects on
