EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Un ange meconnu (Legende allemande), from Histoire de la Troisieme Republique, Vol. I" takes us on a journey through French history and political satire. Created by the talented artist Moloch (Colomb B. ) in 1933, this lithograph depicts an intriguing scene filled with symbolism. In the center of the image stands an unknown angel, his wings spread wide against a stormy backdrop. This enigmatic figure represents the Third Republic of France during a tumultuous period in its history. Surrounding him are various elements that allude to significant events and figures of French politics. The presence of a cross and demon signifies religious conflicts, while an ocean with a telescope hints at exploration and discovery. The inclusion of male political figures suggests their involvement in shaping the destiny of France. Notably, Auguste Scheurer-Kestner is depicted as one such figure, known for his role in exposing injustice during the infamous Dreyfus Affair. Through clever use of satire and historical references, Moloch captures both the complexities and controversies surrounding French politics during this era. With meticulous detail and engraving techniques reminiscent of old-world craftsmanship, this artwork invites viewers to delve into its intricate layers. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and uncertainty, there are hidden angels who play crucial roles in shaping our collective destiny.
