EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: Les Parisiens tirant le diable par la queue (The Parisians Pulling the Devil's Tail), c1920, by Jean Veber This vibrant and lively oil painting by Jean Veber captures the spirit of Paris in the 1920s. The scene depicts a group of Parisians, both male and female, engaged in a spirited game of tug of war with the devil himself. The devil, with his fiery red skin and horns, is shown in the center, his tail being pulled by a team of determined Parisians. The men and women, dressed in semi-dress and semi-naked, display a range of expressions from focused determination to playful delight. The painting is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of France and the enduring tradition of Carnavalet Museum in Paris, where it is housed. The concept of the devil being pulled by a group of people is a common theme in folklore and carnival celebrations, reflecting the human desire to challenge and overcome adversity. The use of color and oil painting technique adds depth and texture to the image, bringing the scene to life and making it a visual feast for the eyes. The painting also showcases the concept of teamwork and the communal spirit of Parisians, as they come together to pull the devil's tail. The location of the painting in Paris, the City of Light, adds to its allure and makes it a must-see for anyone interested in the art and cultural history of France in the 20th century.
