EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to circa 1901 with this illustration titled "Les Travailleurs De l'Enlaidissement" from the March of the Women Collection. The image depicts a tightly packed group of debating members of the Municipal Council, passionately engaged in their destructive work.
The caption accompanying the print paints a vivid picture of these municipal wreckers who are described as raging in every direction - north, south, west, and east. They are portrayed as being hard at work but lacking an understanding of the beauty that surrounds them. Instead, they only know how to bring down monuments with great blows of the pickaxe, oblivious to the significance and history behind these structures built by their grandfathers.
This thought-provoking image is part of "L'Album des Maitres de la Caricature," issue number 10, created by Albert Robida. It offers a glimpse into a different era where political debates and actions had far-reaching consequences on society and its architectural heritage.
Immerse yourself in this historical moment captured through art and let your imagination run wild as you contemplate the impact of progress on our surroundings.
