Original colored lithograph. Hand-signed on the lower right corner. On the lower central margin is present the writing: ''Cette charmante petite marquise du Goguenot depuis son mariage avec le comte de la Ratière n'a encore obtenu ni bonheur, ni satisfaction; elle m'a confié ses peines. et ensuite imploré mon ministère pour la consoler''. Good conditions. Satirical work depicting several religious figures laughing around a table. The work has been realized by Edmond Lavrate (Orleans, 1829 - Paris, 1888) a designer, lithographer, anticlerical French inventor of advertisements and illustrated questions. Lavrate then devotes himself to comic watercolor, through which he particularly targets the military. With the advent of the Republic, the cartoonist now attacks the figure of Napoleon III, preferred target Republicans since Sedan. One of his watercolors, with the caption ''Badinguet going to war, Rolled Sedan'', is seized in 1872 at Leloup, print dealer, rue de la Lune in Paris. According to Guillaume Doizy, ''In addition to the republican anticlerical political caricature, Lavrate invents the anticlerical caricature of morals, by attacking a clergy, which, in its sociological diversity, will become the target of the free-thinking press after 1900. of the religious question, Lavrate appears as a forerunner. We understand why he was, after 1900, extensively reissued by the militant press''. See less
