EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and chaotic illustration captures a lively scene in the House of Deputies, as depicted on the title page of an illustrated supplement from Le Petit Journal on July 10th, 1898. Created by Henri Meyer, this colour lithograph showcases a ruckus unfolding within the chamber. The image portrays a moment of unruliness and misbehavior reminiscent of naughty schoolboys causing chaos in a classroom. The exasperated teacher stands at the front, reprimanding his unruly pupils with stern words: "If you continue, I'll kick you all out!". The desks are scattered haphazardly across the room while politicians engage in heated arguments and physical altercations. Symbolizing liberty and satirical commentary on political affairs, this caricature highlights both the puerile nature of some politicians' behavior and their inability to maintain order within such an esteemed institution. The tricolor flag hanging above serves as a reminder of France's national identity amidst this tumultuous scene. Intriguingly, various forms of punishment tools like whips, canes, and cat o' nine tails are visible throughout the illustration. These elements suggest that discipline is necessary to restore order among these rowdy individuals who should be focused on matters of governance rather than engaging in childish disputes. This print offers viewers a glimpse into historical political dynamics while showcasing Meyer's artistic talent for capturing satire through vivid imagery.
