EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing photomontage titled "Le nouveau Gargantua" we are transported back to the year 1932, a time of political tension and societal upheaval. The image captures the essence of caricature and satire, shedding light on the struggles faced by Mr. Germain Martin in his attempt to feed an insatiable figure. Mr. Herriot, unable to resist the spectacle before him, can only marvel at the robust appetite displayed by this larger-than-life character. The contrast between their expressions is stark – one filled with frustration and defeat, while the other exudes fascination and admiration. The artist behind this piece is Kjeldgaard Marinus Jacob from Alinari. Through his skillful manipulation of photography, he brings forth a scene that not only reflects upon contemporary history subjects but also serves as a form of propaganda with political undertones. As we delve deeper into its meaning, we cannot help but draw parallels to world war II and its aftermath. This work speaks volumes about society's struggle to provide for its people during times of scarcity or economic hardship. While it remains unclear who exactly this enigmatic figure represents – whether a politician or simply an allegorical representation – what is evident is that Marinus Jacob has crafted a thought-provoking composition that invites us to question our own understanding of power dynamics within society. This print holds immense historical value as it offers us insight into both past events and human nature itself. It serves as a testament to how art can transcend time and continue sparking conversations long after its creation date - November 16th, 1932
