EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical print titled "Tout comme au theatre" captures the essence of a bygone era. Created in 1906, it showcases the talent of the French School from the 20th century. The illustration was originally featured in Le Pele-Mele, a publication known for its satirical content. The scene depicted is filled with humor and comic charm. Set inside a shop, we see an array of characters wearing extravagant hats that were fashionable at the time. The central figure, a bored husband, stands out as he engages with an innovative device called the "theatrephone". This early form of technology allowed people to listen to live performances over long distances. The artist's wit shines through this comical portrayal of society's fascination with new inventions. With satire and cleverness, they poke fun at both fashion trends and our insatiable desire for entertainment. As we delve into this delightful artwork, we are transported back to early 20th-century France. It serves as a reminder that even then, people sought amusement and laughter amidst their daily lives. This print not only entertains but also offers us insight into French culture during this period. It exemplifies how art can capture moments in history while simultaneously providing commentary on societal norms.
