EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white illustration from 1890, we witness a man in the throes of uncontrollable laughter. His belly is held tightly as he erupts into fits of mirth, his joyous expression illuminated by the sheer exuberance of the moment. The artist, Narcisse Salieres, beautifully captures the essence of a "drunken laugh" depicting the aftermath of indulging in wine. This artwork not only portrays drunkenness but also explores themes of alcoholism and its effects on human emotions. The man's laughter becomes a symbol of liberation and release, transcending societal constraints and embracing pure bliss. It serves as a reminder that even amidst life's struggles, moments of unadulterated happiness can be found. Salieres' drawing was created to accompany Achille Mir's poem titled "Lo Rire" in Occitan language. Through this collaboration between art forms, we are transported to 19th-century France where laughter echoed through taverns and wine flowed freely. As we gaze upon this image today, it reminds us that laughter has always been an essential part of our humanity. It connects us across time and cultures, reminding us to find joy even in the simplest pleasures. This timeless illustration encapsulates the universal power of laughter - an expression that knows no boundaries or limitations.
