EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Cover of 'The Laughter', Satirical in Colors, 1898_8_13: And then" captures a whimsical and satirical scene from the late 19th century. Illustrated by Abel Faivre, this artwork showcases a humorous depiction of societal norms and contradictions. In the image, we see a young woman engrossed in her reading while sitting on a mode of transport. She is dressed modestly but with an air of elegance, highlighting the fashion trends of that era. However, what makes this illustration truly intriguing is the juxtaposition between her refined appearance and the fact that she is smoking. Faivre's clever commentary becomes apparent through his choice to depict a bombshell exploding behind her as she nonchalantly enjoys her cigarette. This visual metaphor suggests that despite society's expectations for women to be demure and silent, their actions can still have explosive consequences. Furthermore, Faivre challenges traditional notions of modesty by including elements of nudity within the illustration. This bold move adds another layer to his critique on societal hypocrisy and reveals his willingness to push boundaries. Overall, this artwork invites viewers to reflect on social conventions and question whether they are truly meaningful or merely superficial. Through humor and satire, Faivre encourages us to challenge established norms and embrace individuality without fear or judgment.
