La Revanche du Gibier - A Humorous Take on Field Sports
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from 1901, titled "La Revanche du Gibier" offers a delightful glimpse into the world of French countryside hunting. Created by an anonymous artist from the 20th century, this color lithograph captures the essence of anthropomorphism and satire with its comical depiction of animals seeking revenge. In this amusing scene, we witness a captured deer tied up while various birds and rabbits take advantage of their captor's predicament. The clever use of anthropomorphism adds to the humor as these animals display human-like expressions and actions. With a touch of irony, it becomes evident that even in captivity, nature can find ways to turn the tables. The satirical drawing not only entertains but also provides social commentary on field sports prevalent during that era. It playfully challenges traditional notions surrounding hunting practices and highlights the power dynamics between hunter and prey. As we explore this artwork further, we notice additional elements such as hounds eagerly observing their captive through a fence. The inclusion of dogs symbolizes both loyalty towards their master and perhaps curiosity about what lies ahead for them in this whimsical scenario. Overall, "La Revanche du Gibier" is a humorous yet thought-provoking illustration that invites us to reflect on our relationship with wildlife and question societal norms surrounding bloodsports. Through its clever composition and witty execution, it reminds us that even in artful caricatures lie deeper messages waiting to be discovered.
