Creator (LCNAF)
  • Klenck, Paul
Description This is a political caricature related to the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 or the Paris Commune of 1871. Caption: "Membre de la Commune. Le nom de Billioray fut longtemps donné par la réaction à un joueur de vielle bien comme dans les cours de Paris, lequel est un plat mendiant et un agent de la police dite casserole. En réalité, Billioray est un jeune peintre de talent, très inconnu avant la Commune, et il n'a aucun rapoort avec ce mouchard-artiste nomade. (Condamné à la déportation.)" Caption (English translation): "Member of the Commune. The name Billioray was for a long time a name that gave the impression of a hurdy-gurdy player well known in the streets of Paris, who was a begging dish(?) and a police informer also known as Casserole. In reality, Billioray is a talented young painter, extremely unknown before the Commune, and that has nothing to do with that sneak-nomad artist. (Condemned to deportation.)"
