1915 Albert Caricature Cartoon Flambeau Guillaume Honour Madame Paris Satire Saved September World Bourgeoisie Chauffeur Excuse


EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Honour is saved. . . caricature of the bourgeoisie by Albert Guillaume" transports us back to September 1915, during the tumultuous times of World War I. The artwork, featured in Le Flambeau magazine in Paris, showcases Albert Guillaume's brilliant satire and keen eye for social commentary. In this thought-provoking cartoon, we witness a scene that exposes the hypocrisy and class divide within society. A bourgeois lady stands proudly next to the caricatured representation of her social class. With an air of superiority, she proclaims that honor has been preserved amidst chaos. However, her statement is met with a clever retort from an unseen voice - "But you, Madame, you have no one at the front". The juxtaposition between privilege and sacrifice becomes evident as we delve deeper into this image. The lady's response reveals her detachment from the harsh realities faced by those directly affected by war. Yet again, Guillaume masterfully employs his artistic skills to highlight societal flaws through biting satire. As viewers contemplate this powerful piece of art captured on film by Universal Images Group (UIG), they are reminded that even during times of conflict and turmoil, some remain shielded from its consequences due to their privileged positions or ignorance. Let us not forget the significance behind each stroke in this remarkable cartoon; it serves as a timeless reminder that true honor lies not in self-preservation but rather in empathy and solidarity with those who bear the burden on our behalf.
