Charles Philipon
Charles Philipon is represented here by a single sheet from the satirical journal Petit Journal pour Rire, combining letterpress text with wood engravings. The publication belongs to the tradition of nineteenth-century French illustrated humour, where image and printed caption work together on the page. This collection holds one such sheet, dated in the museum record to 1856, and described under the title Petit Journal pour Rire vol. 1, (nos. 1-52).
