VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage illustration depicting a humorous scene of mountain climbing. A smiling man in traditional alpine attire, complete with a rope and walking stick, stands confidently on the side of a rocky cliff. He supports an animated woman who appears to be playfully fainting into his arms, her body language suggesting dizziness or mock despair from vertigo. She is dressed in bright clothing that seems more fashionable than functional for mountaineering, including an orange skirt and striped stockings. The caption "Vertige. . . ou le mal des montagnes" translates to "Vertigo. . . or the mountain sickness, " indicating that the image might be poking fun at city dwellers' experiences in the mountains. The style of art suggests it could have been created as part of a series or magazine feature focusing on Parisian life ("La Vie Parisienne"), offering satirical takes on various situations.
