    Musée des horreurs – Original colour lithographed poster – n° 6 “Le Traître”
    Imprimerie Lenepveu | Paris [Novembre 1899] | 49,8 x 65,2 cm | one poster
    Original colour lithographed poster depicting Alfred Dreyfus as a Gorgonian headed hydra pierced by a military sword.

    Far from the classic zoomorphic codes usually used by caricaturists, Alfred Dreyfus is associated here with the hydra, a mythical creature emblematic of evil. Beyond this symbolism, the choice of a monster with sprawling and perpetually regenerating heads gives the image a strong anti-Semitic charge, exceeding that of the Dreyfus Affair.
    Ironically, it is the...

    Original colour lithographed poster depicting Jean Jaurès as an elephant sitting on a chair and holding a bottle of “water from the Jordan”. Until then portrayed as a dog – caricaturists mocking his aggressiveness – Jean Jaurès is here, for the first time, represented as an elephant. It is a question here of highlighting his potbelly and his pachyderm silhouette, but we can, nevertheless, highlight the great dignity of this massive personality with a high gaze. The water from the Jordan is held on one of his hoofs and alludes to the rumour that he had his son baptised in the scared river, thus acting against his anticlerical policy. Despite the caricaturist's desire to...
