Le Petit Sou - Journal de Defense Sociale, 1900 (lithography) by Steinlen - A Powerful Depiction of Social Struggle and Liberation
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This lithograph from 1900, created by the talented artist Théophile Alexandre Steinlen, titled "Le Petit Sou - Journal de Defense Sociale" offers a profound visual narrative of social struggle and liberation. The artwork portrays Marianne, the symbol of France's revolutionary spirit, leading a multitude of oppressed workers whose broken shackles no longer hold them back. In the background looms a domed building representing state power, guarded fiercely by both clergy and military forces. Atop this structure stands a golden calf, symbolizing materialism and greed. Meanwhile, an equestrian statue serves as a reminder of authority and control. Steinlen masterfully captures the essence of societal tension through his use of color and symbolism. The image showcases courageous individuals fighting for their rights with tools in hand while Marianne fearlessly leads them forward. The artist's anti-clerical stance is evident as he highlights the oppressive role played by religious institutions in maintaining social inequality. This thought-provoking piece reflects not only political unrest but also challenges prevailing notions about religion and its influence on society. "Le Petit Sou - Journal de Defense Sociale" remains an enduring testament to human resilience against oppression throughout history. Its artistic brilliance continues to inspire generations to question authority and fight for freedom in all its forms.
