EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an illustration of Leonce Burret (1865-1915) for the cover of Le Rire, a French journal known for its satirical content. The image, dated 15/01/10, exudes a sense of irony and humor through various elements such as sport, leisure, fashion, and smoking. Leonce Burret's artistic talent shines through in this piece as he depicts a girl in an elaborate costume. She is adorned with fur and wears a stylish hat while engaging in the popular activity of ice skating. With a cigar in hand, she adds an unexpected touch to her elegant ensemble. The engraving captures the essence of French society during the early 20th century. It reflects both the casual elegance and clumsiness that were prevalent among the bourgeoisie population at that time. The woman's scarf billows behind her as she glides on ice skates with youthful enthusiasm. Burret's caricature skillfully mocks societal norms and expectations by combining elements of fashion and leisure with unconventional choices like smoking on ice skates. This artwork serves as a testament to his ability to capture not only physical appearances but also social commentary within his illustrations. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into France's cultural landscape from over a century ago. Its intricate details invite us to ponder upon the complexities of human behavior while appreciating Burret's unique style and wit.
