EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "L'Assiette au Beurre, number 209, Satirical in Colours, 1905_4_1" transports us back to the early 20th century in France. The image showcases a thought-provoking engraving by Fernand Louis Gottlob (1873-1935) that was originally published in the satirical French magazine L'Assiette au Beurre. The artwork focuses on the theme of domestic labor and highlights the plight of female workers during this era. In an era where women's rights were still evolving, this powerful illustration sheds light on the struggles faced by working-class women who served as homemakers or maids. Through intricate details and vibrant colors, Gottlob skillfully captures the essence of these unsung heroines. Their expressions tell stories of resilience and determination amidst challenging circumstances. This piece serves as a poignant reminder of their invaluable contributions to society. As we gaze upon this historical gem, we are transported to a time when societal norms dictated gender roles and limited opportunities for many women. It prompts us to reflect on how far we have come since then while acknowledging that there is still work to be done towards achieving true equality for all. With its rich symbolism and social commentary, this print serves as both a visual delight and an important historical artifact that allows us to delve deeper into France's past during the early years of the 20th century.
