EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative sketch, titled 'Villegiature' and dated circa 1901, captures a poignant moment in the cemetery of a quaint church. The elderly man in the foreground, dressed in a worn coat and hat, stands proudly in a hole he has started digging, speaking animatedly to a larger gentleman above him. The scene exudes an air of nostalgia and determination as the elderly man realizes his dream of a simple, inexpensive burial site for the summer. The church in the background, with its intricate details and tall spire, stands as a silent witness to the passage of time and the cyclical nature of life. This charming image is part of the 'March of the Women' Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, a treasure trove of historical and artistic prints. The collection, which was first published in the French satirical magazine 'Les Maitres de la Caricature' in February of 1901, is known for its witty and insightful commentary on society and culture during the early 20th century. This particular sketch, with its poignant depiction of the human condition, is a testament to the enduring appeal of the collection and the power of art to capture the essence of life's moments.
