EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and provocative political poster, created by French artist Adolphe Willette in 1889, depicts the candidate Adolphe Willette as a menacing figure, surrounded by a swarm of Jews, symbolized by the Star of David, attempting to beset and overwhelm Marianne, the national symbol of France. The caption below reads "Ad. Willette, Candidat antisémite," identifying Willette as an anti-Semitic candidate in the legislative elections of September 22, 1889. The image is a stark reminder of the rising tide of anti-Semitism in France during the late 19th century. The Dreyfus Affair, a high-profile anti-Semitic scandal that began in 1894, was still several years away, but anti-Jewish sentiment was already on the rise. Willette's campaign poster reflects the growing fear and hostility towards the Jewish community, fueled by false accusations of political and economic power and influence. The poster was created using the lithography technique, which allowed for mass production and distribution. It was likely displayed in public spaces, such as on walls and in shops, to reach a wide audience. The image is a chilling reminder of the power of propaganda and the damaging effects of religious and ethnic persecution. Despite the dark message of this poster, it is an important historical artifact, shedding light on a troubling period in French history. It serves as a reminder of the importance of standing up against hate speech and intolerance, and of the need to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of all individuals, regardless of their race, religion, or ethnicity.
