EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Two policemen take away a tramp dressed in rags, from Crimes and Punishments" we are transported back to the early 20th century. The image, captured by Felix Edouard Vallotton, showcases a scene filled with contrasting emotions. The two stern-faced policemen stand tall and authoritative as they escort the disheveled tramp away. Dressed in tattered clothing that barely covers his body, the tramp appears vulnerable and downtrodden. It is evident that he has fallen on hard times. However, amidst the seriousness of the situation, there is an unexpected touch of humor. One of the officers points towards the rear end of the tramp while addressing him with a witty remark: "You're showing your bottom to the ladies, chum". This lighthearted comment adds an element of irony to an otherwise somber moment. Vallotton's illustration not only captures this specific arrest but also speaks volumes about societal injustice and abuse of power. The stark contrast between authority figures and those marginalized by society highlights themes of inequality prevalent during that era. This colorful lithograph serves as a reminder that even within moments of hardship and struggle, humor can find its way through - shedding light on both our shared humanity and societal flaws.
