EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Volere e. . . . . potere???!. " showcases a humorous scene captured by the French School in the 20th century. The image, part of a private collection, features an intriguing postcard from the early 1900s. With its playful tone and clever composition, this artwork invites viewers to reflect on themes of desire, age, and sexual performance. In this amusing bedroom setting, we see an old man dressed in a funny gown struggling with his lack of ability to perform sexually. The girl in the picture seems to be catching him off guard as he tries to overcome his impotence. The furniture surrounding them adds another layer of intrigue - particularly the great bed and upholstered goods that symbolize aging and bedding. The postcard's message is both thought-provoking and comical as it pokes fun at societal expectations around sex and virility. It playfully questions whether one can truly have power (potere) when their desires (volere) are hindered by physical limitations. Through its use of wit and irony, this colour litho print captures a moment that transcends time. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern world where solutions like Viagra exist, there are still aspects of human nature that remain unchanged throughout history. Overall, this artwork offers viewers an opportunity for lighthearted reflection on topics often considered taboo or sensitive – making it both entertaining and thought-provoking simultaneously.
