Description from the seller
Théophile-Alexandre Steinlen (1859-1923)
En Carême, 1894
Original lithograph in black, deluxe edition published by Édouard Kleinmann, Paris.
Monogrammed “P. P.” (Petit Pierre) in the stone, as issued; not hand-signed. Numbered “84” in pencil by the publisher, from the deluxe edition limited to 100 prints. Blind stamp of the publisher Éd. Kleinmann (Lugt 1573) at the bottom left.
Dimensions :
Sheet: 45 × 41 cm (17.8 × 16.1 in)
Image: 32 × 30 cm (12.6 × 11.8 in)
Condition: Very good; some handling creases and stains; not framed.
References: Crauzat, 139
Plate from the famous series of political lithographs created by Steinlen for Le Chambard Socialiste, an anarcho-syndicalist weekly to which he contributed from the first issue, in December 1893, until July 1894. To protect himself from prosecutions at the height of anti-anarchist repression, Steinlen signed these biting social satires with the pseudonym Petit Pierre — hence the monogram “P. P.” in the stone. Parallel to the newspaper’s edition, publisher Édouard Kleinmann published a deluxe edition of each plate, identifiable by its blind stamp. These lithographs of Le Chambard, where Steinlen’s compassion for the working-class people finds its most militant expression, have been compared to Daumier’s great political prints.
Original contemporary impression, 1894, deluxe edition published by Éd. Kleinmann.
