EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from around 1920 showcases the enchanting world of costumes and culture. Titled "K for Kabyle and Kimono - L for Lorraine and Lucifer (the devil)" this piece is part of an alphabet primer called "Alphabet du bal costume". The print, created by French School in the 20th century, measures 31x24 cm and belongs to a private collection. The image takes us on a journey through various alphabets, highlighting different regions and traditions. From Algeria's Kabyle attire to Japan's elegant kimono, it celebrates the rich diversity found across continents. This fusion of styles reflects the interconnectedness of our global society. Intriguingly, we encounter contrasting figures as well. Lorraine represents a region in France known for its distinctive cultural heritage while Lucifer personifies the devil himself. This juxtaposition adds depth to the artwork, exploring both light-hearted festivities and darker mythical elements. As we delve into this snapshot from early twentieth-century artistry, we are reminded of how visual expressions can transcend time. It serves as a testament to human creativity throughout history. Through this photograph captured by Jean Duvallon, we are transported back to an era where costumes were not just garments but gateways into diverse cultures and stories waiting to be told.
