The Assassins Albert and Marguerite Dubois, 1896 - A Glimpse into the Dark World of Crime in 19th Century France
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the year 1896, providing a rare glimpse into the lives of notorious assassins Albert and Marguerite Dubois. Created by artist Henri Meyer for Le Petit Journal, this illustration captures a pivotal moment in their story. Dressed in traditional 19th-century clothing, Albert and Marguerite are seen walking down a stone corridor with military escorts. The color palette adds depth to their somber expressions, hinting at the guilt that weighs heavily upon them. Their faces tell tales of an impending trial and inevitable imprisonment. As we observe this scene from inside the penitentiary walls, we cannot help but wonder about the crimes committed by these individuals. What led them down this treacherous path? Were they driven by desperation or fueled by darker motives? The composition skillfully portrays both malevolence and vulnerability as it juxtaposes the strong presence of men escorting these dangerous criminals with the delicate figure of Marguerite – a female assassin who defied societal norms. Through this art media print, Henri Meyer successfully captures not only historical accuracy but also evokes emotions surrounding lawlessness during that era. It serves as a reminder that even within seemingly peaceful societies like France in the late 19th century, darkness can lurk beneath its charming exterior.
