EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Vieux Souvenirs" takes us back to the 19th century with its humorous depiction of military remnants. Created by the talented artist Albert Robida, this print showcases his satirical take on French soldiers and their collecting habits during that era. The scene is filled with a delightful mix of nostalgia and wit. We see a group of collectors, dressed in their military uniforms, eagerly examining various items from wars gone by. From helmets to swords and medals, these soldiers-turned-collectors are enthralled by the artifacts that remind them of past battles. Robida's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. The expressions on each character's face convey both curiosity and amusement as they delve into their shared passion for militaria. "Vieux Souvenirs" not only offers a glimpse into French culture during the 19th century but also serves as a reminder of how humor can be found even in serious subjects like war. This piece invites viewers to reflect on our human inclination towards collecting objects that hold sentimental value or serve as reminders of significant moments in history. As we admire this enchanting print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported back in time, reminded once again that laughter has no boundaries when it comes to artistic expression.
