EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white lithograph, titled "Les Fantoches de L Internationale" offers a chilling portrayal of the communists in France during the 19th century. The image depicts a group of elderly men with beards and moustaches, their faces etched with suspicion and distrust. Their eyes pierce through the monochrome print, revealing a sense of eerie intensity.

Each character is meticulously detailed, emphasizing their individuality while representing a larger political movement.

Its stark beauty continues to captivate viewers, reminding us that suspicion can linger behind even the
