EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "L Plate au beurre, number 439, Satirique en Couleurs" takes us back to the bustling streets of Paris in 1909. The image showcases a worker on the Seine River, surrounded by various elements that symbolize labor and poverty during that era. The worker is seen standing on a boat near the docks, with a crane towering over him. His worn-out appearance reflects the hardships faced by many laborers at the time. The engraving beautifully captures his misery and exhaustion as he goes about his daily tasks. The illustration was created by Ricardo Flores, an influential artist known for his social commentary through satirical art. Through this piece, Flores sheds light on the struggles faced by workers in early 20th century France. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of societal issues prevalent during those years. It highlights not only the economic disparities but also emphasizes how newspapers and journalism played a role in exposing such realities to society. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured by eCaricadoc, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the challenges faced by ordinary people trying to make ends meet along the banks of Seine River.
