This is an etching or lithograph depicting a satirical scene. At the top of the image, the word "ACTUALITÉS" is printed, indicating that this illustration might have been part of a series or publication focused on current events or social commentary. In the scene, three characters are shown: a tall, skeletal figure in long robes, a round, robust figure leaning forward aggressively, and a third character standing firm and dignified. Their attire suggests historical fashion, possibly from the 19th century, which is common in satirical prints from that era. The tall figure's robe is adorned with text, with phrases like "LAISSIEZ LE PEUPLE" visible, hinting at political messaging. The characters interact dramatically, and the mood appears contentious or confrontational. Beneath the image, there is a caption in French that reads: "MARIAGE DE L'EPOQUE ET DU CONSTITUTIONNEL. Bilboquet – Courteux! je vous unis et je vous bénis _______ allez _______ croissez en format, et multipliez vos annuaires!" Translated, this roughly says: "Marriage of the era and the constitution. Cup and ball game – Courteous! I join you and I bless you _______ go _______ grow in format, and multiply your yearbooks!" This caption, along with the imagery, points to a political or social allegory, where the characters might represent different societal forces or ideologies, and the act of marriage could symbolize the union or reconciliation of contrasting principles or entities. The image features a signature that reads "h.D." on the bottom right, along with the year 1849, and was printed by Imp. Aubert & Cie, as indicated at the bottom left. These details identify the work's creator and printer, dating the piece to the mid-19th century. The number "129" could be a page number or sequence identifier within the publication.
