EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of the cover of "Le Lire", a satirical magazine from 1898. Illustrated by Fernand Fau, this piece titled "Le passage du gue" transports us to the countryside, where a fashionable couple is depicted crossing a river filled with industrial factories. The scene is rich in detail, showcasing elements of both leisure and industry.
Fau's illustration skillfully captures the essence of society during the late 19th century, highlighting themes such as fashion, obesity, and chivalry. The exaggerated caricatures add a touch of humor to the composition, making it both visually striking and thought-provoking.
As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of a bygone era when life was simpler yet filled with complexities unique to that time period. The intricate engravings and attention to detail draw us into the world of "Le Lire", inviting us to explore its pages further.
This print serves as a window into history, offering insights into French culture and society at the turn of the century. It is a testament to Fernand Fau's talent as an illustrator and his ability to capture the spirit of his time through art.
