EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph titled "A postman saved from robbers by his dog" depicts a heroic scene that unfolded on a French highway in the early 20th century. The artwork, created by an anonymous artist from the French School, showcases the unwavering loyalty and protective instincts of man's best friend. In this dramatic illustration for Le Petit Journal, published on March 13,1910, we witness a courageous postman being shielded from criminals by his faithful canine companion. As the horse-drawn postal service wagon traverses the road, it is suddenly ambushed by ruthless robbers intent on stealing valuable mail. However, before they can carry out their nefarious plan, the fearless dog springs into action to defend its master. The image captures not only the intense moment of attack but also highlights themes of bravery and trust between humans and animals. The postman clutches his walking stick tightly as he watches in awe as his loyal pet confronts these dangerous assailants head-on. This powerful visual narrative serves as a reminder of both the dangers faced by those who serve society and the remarkable bond shared between humans and their animal companions. It is a testament to how our furry friends can become true heroes when put to the test. With its vibrant colors and dynamic composition, this print offers viewers a glimpse into an extraordinary event that took place over a century ago while celebrating timeless values such as loyalty and protection.
