EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Illustration for the cover Le Rire, 22/01/10: feminism" captures the essence of a bygone era. Created by renowned French illustrator Lucien Metivet in the early 20th century, this engraving showcases his mastery in depicting societal themes with a touch of humor. The image portrays a scene filled with symbolism and commentary on gender roles and relationships. A young woman, representing feminism, is shown at work as a poster gluer while holding a paintbrush and bucket. Beside her stands a man, possibly her partner or admirer, engaging in an affectionate kiss. This juxtaposition highlights both love and labor within society. Metivet's caricature style adds depth to the illustration as he skillfully depicts various elements such as scales symbolizing justice and balance between genders. The presence of a journal suggests that this artwork was intended for publication in Le Rire magazine, known for its satirical content. Through this thought-provoking piece, Metivet explores themes like antifeminism, fashion trends, professions dominated by women or men during that time period. It serves as an insightful reflection on the evolving dynamics between genders in early 20th-century France. Preserved through time and now available as a print from Fine Art Finder via Bridgeman Images, this engraving continues to captivate viewers with its intricate details and timeless message about feminism's place within society.
