One Doesn't Get Used to It, 1915
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant lithograph created by Theophile Alexandre Steinlen during the First World War. This print captures the essence of human suffering and humiliation that prevailed during this tumultuous period in history. In this artwork, four individuals are depicted on a street, each bearing the weight of their own personal struggles. An elderly man and woman stand together, their faces etched with weariness and sorrow. Their tattered clothing reflects the hardships they have endured as civilians caught in the chaos of war. Among them stands a soldier, his uniform worn and disheveled. His searching gaze speaks volumes about the toll that conflict has taken on him both physically and emotionally. Another man, wrapped in an overcoat against the cold, appears lost in thought as he contemplates his own experiences. Steinlen's mastery lies not only in capturing individual expressions but also conveying a collective sense of despair within this group portrait. Through his use of lithography techniques, he creates depth and texture that further emphasize their somber reality. This artwork serves as a powerful reminder of the devastating impact war has on ordinary people's lives - stripping away dignity while leaving scars that cannot easily be erased or forgotten. "One Doesn't Get Used to It" invites us to reflect upon our shared humanity amidst times of turmoil and reminds us never to take peace for granted.
