EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and lively print captures the essence of King Edward VII's visit to France in 1903. Created by Georges Delaw, a renowned artist of his time, this illustration was originally featured in the popular French magazine Le Rire. The scene depicted is filled with humor and satire, showcasing Delaw's talent for caricature. The arc de triomphe stands tall in the background as preparations are underway for the royal visit. The cartoon-like characters add a touch of amusement to the overall composition, making it an entertaining piece to behold. Through this satirical drawing, Delaw pokes fun at various aspects of French culture and society during that era. The procession and parade are portrayed in a comical manner, highlighting both the grandeur and absurdity surrounding such events. King Edward VII himself is depicted with exaggerated features, emphasizing his larger-than-life presence during his European tour. This scathing satire serves as a commentary on both royalty and politics at that time. Overall, this colorful lithograph offers a unique glimpse into history while providing entertainment through its clever use of wit and artistic skill. It showcases Delaw's ability to capture not only physical likeness but also social dynamics within his illustrations. A true gem from Fine Art Finder's collection!
