EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an illustration by Adolphe dit Willette, a renowned French artist from the late 19th to early 20th century. The artwork was originally created for the cover of Le Rire, a prominent French journal known for its satirical content. In this particular piece titled "Flirt". Willette skillfully captures the essence of love, fashion, and internal architecture within society during that time period. The engraving depicts a young woman with delicate features and expressive eyesight, exuding both shyness and seduction simultaneously. The girl's oath is beautifully portrayed through Willette's intricate lines and attention to detail. Her light complexion contrasts against the dark background, drawing focus to her captivating presence.

Willette's work often reflected societal norms and values through his unique artistic style. This print serves as a window into France's cultural landscape during the early 20th century - capturing not only the beauty but also shedding light on social dynamics prevalent in that era. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, this print offers viewers an opportunity to delve into the rich tapestry of European art history while appreciating Willette's mastery as an engraver for newspapers like Le Rire.
