EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the cover of "The Silhouette" from July 21,1889. Illustrated by the talented Alphonse Hector Colomb, also known as B. Moloch or Moloch, this artwork titled "Le nouveau Laocoon - Affaire Boulanger" is a masterpiece in its own right. The image depicts three prominent figures of the time: Georges Boulanger, Rochefort Henri, and Laocoon. Boulanger was a French general who gained immense popularity during the late 19th century due to his nationalist views and charismatic personality. Rochefort Henri was a journalist and politician known for his involvement in various scandals. And finally, Laocoon symbolizes an ancient Greek mythological figure entangled in serpents. Colomb's illustration skillfully captures the essence of these individuals within a satirical context that reflects the political climate of France at that time. With intricate details and precise linework, he brings forth their distinctive features while adding an element of humor through caricature. This print not only serves as a visual representation of historical events but also highlights Colomb's exceptional talent as an engraver and caricaturist. It offers viewers a glimpse into the world of French journalism during this period while showcasing Bridgeman Images' dedication to preserving fine art for future generations to appreciate.
