EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures an illustration from Le Rire, dated 28th June 1913. Titled "The blow of the suffragette" it showcases the artistic brilliance of Lucien Metivet (1863-1930), a renowned French illustrator. The image depicts a small madwoman named Jaures, who symbolizes the suffragette movement during that time. Metivet's engraving beautifully conveys the essence of this historical moment, where feminism and equestrianism intersect. The suffragette is seen delivering a powerful blow, representing her fight for women's rights amidst societal constraints. This artwork also alludes to key figures such as Jean Jaures and Jean-Louis Barthou, who played significant roles in advocating for gender equality. With its intricate details and skillful execution, this piece encapsulates early 20th-century France's political climate. It highlights both the struggles faced by women seeking empowerment and their determination to challenge social norms. Preserved by eCaricadoc and made available through Bridgeman Images, this engraving serves as a testament to Metivet's talent as well as an important historical document. Its presence evokes contemplation on past battles fought for gender equality while reminding us of the progress yet to be achieved.
