EDITORS COMMENTS
The Slum, poster from the Ministere de la Sante Publique, 1936 (colour litho) captures the harsh reality of poverty and destitution in early 20th century France. Created by renowned artist Francisque Poulbot, this powerful image serves as a call to action to eradicate slums and improve public health. In this print, we are confronted with the grim conditions that plagued impoverished communities during that time. The dilapidated buildings, overcrowded streets, and unsanitary living conditions depicted here highlight the urgent need for change. Poulbot's artistic prowess brings these issues to life through his masterful use of color lithography. The Ministry of Public Health commissioned this artwork as part of their campaign against tuberculosis and poverty. By purchasing these five images drawn by Poulbot for the Ligue Nationale Contre le Taudis (National League Against Slums), individuals could contribute directly to efforts aimed at improving living conditions for those most affected by poverty. This historic photograph not only serves as a reminder of our past but also prompts us to reflect on our present circumstances. It reminds us that homelessness, disease, and precariousness still persist in many parts of the world today. As we gaze upon this poignant image from Fine Art Finder's private collection, let it inspire us to take action towards creating a more equitable society where everyone has access to decent housing and healthcare.
