Errants. . . !, 1915 - A Glimpse into the Shadows of War
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white lithograph, created by renowned artist Theophile Alexandre Steinlen in 1915, offers a haunting portrayal of the First World War. Titled "Errants. . . !", this powerful artwork captures the essence of a war-torn country and its lost souls. In this thought-provoking image, we see a lone figure dressed in a military uniform wandering through the streets of France. The shadowy background people seem to blend into darkness, symbolizing the uncertainty and despair that engulfed the nation during this tumultuous period. Steinlen's masterful use of lithography brings depth and emotion to every stroke, emphasizing both the physical toll on individuals and their internal struggles. Through his artistry, he conveys not only the physical search for missing loved ones but also the metaphorical quest for hope amidst chaos. The artist's choice to depict this scene in black over fawn tint on off-white wove paper further enhances its somber tone. This print serves as an enduring reminder of those who were left behind or went astray during wartime—a poignant tribute to their sacrifice and resilience. Displayed at The Art Institute Chicago, this remarkable piece from Steinlen invites viewers to reflect upon our shared history while contemplating themes such as loss, identity, and humanity's capacity for survival even in times of great adversity.
