EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "X? The Stranger of the Party - Y for Yankee - Z for Zinnia and Zoulou, around 1920" takes us back to the vibrant era of the 1920s. Created by an anonymous French artist from the 20th century, this artwork measures 31x24 cm and is part of a private collection. The image is derived from an alphabet primer called "Alphabet du bal costume" published by Hachette in Paris during that time period. Illustrated by S. Decam, this particular print showcases characters representing letters X, Y, and Z at a masked ball or masquerade dance. The individuals depicted are adorned in elaborate costumes and masks, adding an air of mystery to their identities. The letter X characterizes "The Stranger of the Party" while Y represents a proud Yankee figure. Finally, Z embodies both "Zinnia" and "Zoulou". This artwork not only captures the essence of early twentieth-century culture but also explores themes related to anonymity and personal identity through its portrayal of masked figures. It serves as a reminder that beneath our external appearances lie hidden depths waiting to be discovered. With its intricate details and historical significance, this piece exemplifies fine art at its finest. It transports viewers back in time to experience the elegance and allure of a bygone era while leaving room for interpretation and contemplation about our own identities within society today.
