EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative image, titled 'Naughty Children Seized by M. et Mme. Croque-Mitaine' dates back to circa 1810 and is a fascinating glimpse into the past of childrearing and discipline in France during the early 19th century. The print depicts a group of mischievous children, their faces etched with expressions of defiance and amusement, as they are seized by the ominous figures of M. and Mme. Croque-Mitaine, the French equivalent of the Bogeyman. The Bogeyman, or Croque-Mitaine as he was known in France, was a popular folklore figure used by parents to deter their children from misbehaving. The name Croque-Mitaine is derived from the French words 'croquer' meaning to bite and 'mitaine' meaning mitten, suggesting that this bogeyman had a fondness for biting children who disobeyed. The image captures the moment of confrontation between the children and their fearsome captors. The children's disheveled appearance and wild expressions suggest that they have been caught in the midst of some mischief, while the stern faces and determined grip of M. and Mme. Croque-Mitaine convey a sense of authority and discipline. The print is a reminder of the importance of discipline and obedience in the lives of children during this era. It also highlights the role of folklore and storytelling in shaping children's behavior and instilling moral values. The image is a captivating historical artifact that offers a glimpse into the past and sheds light on the cultural practices and beliefs of the time."
