EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Freedom of teaching by Gibet: The Guard - You may scream Dad!" captures a powerful moment in French history. Taken from the cover of "Le Pilori" on October 31,1886, this caricature by Blass, J. (Douat, Albert called) portrays the struggle for freedom of education during that time. In the image, we see a child standing defiantly in front of a Laique School while being guarded by the National Guard. The child's father is shown screaming in frustration as he witnesses the Mayor's order to fill the school with students. This scene represents the ongoing battle between secularism and religious influence within French society. This artwork reflects an era marked by intense anticlericalism and press activism. It symbolizes not only childhood innocence but also highlights the importance of education as a fundamental right for all individuals. The artist skillfully captures both tension and determination through his use of bold lines and expressive faces. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of France's commitment to laicite (secularism) and its continuous pursuit of equal educational opportunities for all citizens. Preserved in private collection, this historical piece offers us insight into an important chapter in French history while reminding us that freedom should never be taken for granted.
