The Woman Behind the Gun - A Sporting Afternoon with Coco Chanel, May 24, 1911 This illustration, published in Puck magazine on May 24, 1911, depicts an elegant and daring woman, believed to be the iconic fashion designer Coco Chanel, engaging in an unexpected pastime - hunting. The image captures the moment as she takes aim at a flock of large white birds with a rifle, her expression a perfect blend of concentration and determination. Two French Milliner dogs, labeled in the illustration, attend to her side. Their attire, complete with bowties and hats, adds a touch of whimsy to the scene. Once the hunt is over, the dogs place the dead birds at her feet, forming a small pile. The illustration, created in a cartoon style, showcases the woman's fashionable attire, including a large hat adorned with feathers, a tailored jacket, and high-waisted pants. This image not only highlights her hunting skills but also her impeccable sense of style. The publication of this illustration in Puck magazine, a well-known American humor magazine, adds an element of surprise and intrigue. It challenges the societal norms of the time, where women were expected to adhere to traditional roles and behaviors. Coco Chanel, known for her groundbreaking influence on fashion, embodies the spirit of defying expectations and embracing new experiences. This image is a testament to Coco Chanel's adventurous spirit and her ability to transcend societal norms, making it a fascinating piece of both fashion and historical significance.
