CARAN d'ACHE: Les courses dans l'Antiquité. Plon, Nourrit e - Lot 187
CARAN d'ACHE: Les courses dans l'Antiquité. Plon, Nourrit et Cie, no date. Album in-4 oblong red and yellow personalized cardboard publisher (spine and edges of the plates faded, one spine split). A parody of the paintings and mores of the 19th century where antiquity is no longer a factor of idealization but of causticity: the lunch on the grass illustrated by fat matrons, the parade of fallen gods in front of a crowd of spectators. The album is politically marked in the caricatures of Louise Michel, the red virgin, and the Baron de Rotschild.
