EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "L'Assiette au Beurre, number 468, Satirique en couleurs, 1910_3_19: Social" takes us back to the early 20th century in France. The image portrays a powerful allegory of social and economic struggles during that time. In this thought-provoking engraving by Maurice Radiguet, we see Marianne, the symbol of France, burdened with the weight of silver taxes. She represents the French population as a whole and is depicted as a laborer carrying a bag filled with financial hardships. The copiousness of poverty is evident on her face as she carries this heavy load. The artist skillfully captures the essence of sadness and despair through his intricate details and use of color. The woman's expression reflects not only her personal struggle but also serves as an embodiment of the collective suffering experienced by many during that era. This artwork serves as both a historical document and a critique on societal issues such as finance and inequality. It reminds us that even in times long past, these problems were prevalent and affected individuals from all walks of life. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded to reflect on our own society's progress while acknowledging the challenges faced by those who came before us.
