EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A man robbed at gunpoint in his bed" transports us back to a chilling scene from the early 20th century. Created by an anonymous French School artist, this colour lithograph captures a moment of sheer terror and vulnerability. The image depicts a bedroom where a man lies helplessly in his grand bed, unaware that danger lurks above him. Armed criminals have invaded his sanctuary, pointing their pistols directly at him with menacing intent. The victim's face reflects shock and fear as he realizes the gravity of the situation unfolding before him. Every detail in this artwork adds to the atmosphere of anxiety and anguish. From the opulent furnishings surrounding the bed to the dimly lit attic space where these robbers hide, we can sense both the comfort that has been violated and the imminent threat hanging over our protagonist. This powerful illustration was originally published as part of Le Petit Parisien (Supplement Litteraire Illustre) on December 28,1902. It serves as a stark reminder of how crime can infiltrate even our most intimate spaces, leaving us feeling exposed and vulnerable. As we gaze upon this haunting image, we are reminded of our own need for safety and security within our homes – an essential aspect of human existence that should never be taken for granted.
