EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a dramatic moment in history, depicting an off-duty policeman being viciously attacked by a group of men as they leave the screening of an antimilitarist film. Created by the French School in the 20th century, this colour litho artwork is now part of a private collection. The image showcases the intense violence and chaos that unfolded on that fateful day in Aubervilliers, Paris. The officer finds himself outnumbered and overwhelmed by these criminals who are determined to silence his opposition to militarism. This illustration originally appeared in Le Petit Journal on January 31,1909. The scene evokes strong emotions as it highlights the clash between those fighting for peace and those perpetuating crime and aggression. It serves as a powerful reminder of the ongoing struggle against violence and conflict within society. With its vibrant colors and dynamic composition, this artwork not only documents a historical event but also reflects important themes such as French culture, crime, and resistance against militarism. It stands as a testament to the bravery of law enforcement officers who risk their lives every day to protect our communities. As we gaze upon this striking piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of both the fragility of peace and humanity's unwavering determination to fight for justice.
