La Suisse appellerait ça ne pas reconnaitre la propriété littéraire
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Switzerland would call it not recognizing literary property) is a captivating lithograph created by the renowned French caricaturist, Amedee Charles Henri de Noe, better known as Cham, in 1866. This masterpiece was published in the French periodical, Le Charivari, on Thursday, 29 March 1866, under the series title "Actualites." Cham's witty and humorous depiction captures a group of men in a bookshop or art gallery, surrounded by various books and artifacts. The central figure, dressed in American attire, gestures towards a Swiss man, who is puzzled and points to a book, seemingly unaware that the American has taken the idea from his work. The scene is a clever commentary on the concept of intellectual property and the challenges of recognizing and protecting it during the 19th century. The black-and-white lithograph, titled "Switzerland would call it not recognizing literary property," is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Europe and the evolving nature of the art world. The intricate details, expressive figures, and thought-provoking subject matter make this a must-have for any art collection, particularly those focusing on historical caricatures and the development of intellectual property laws. This artwork, now held in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), showcases Cham's exceptional talent and his ability to use humor to address complex issues. The image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the world of art, literature, and the evolving concept of intellectual property.
