EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing print titled ""You still have time to make your nose, my man, if you think you're coming back to Paris, you can search yourself, " we are transported back in time to the era of the Commune of Paris. The image captures a moment of political satire and caricature during the revolution. The artist behind this engraving is Alfred Petit (d. 1895), whose work is now part of a private collection. The composition showcases his talent for capturing both humor and social commentary through art. The central figure in the print appears to be Napoleon III (1808-1873), who was overthrown during the Commune of Paris. His exaggerated facial expression suggests a sense of arrogance or disbelief as he contemplates his return to power. The caption beneath the image adds another layer of intrigue: "You still have time to make your nose, my man". This phrase implies that there may be consequences or retribution awaiting those who seek power without considering their actions or impact on others. Overall, this print by Leonard de Selva offers us a glimpse into history through artistic interpretation. It serves as a reminder that even in times of political turmoil, satire can provide an outlet for expressing dissent and questioning authority.
