La Caricature (Journal), 1832-1834 - Lot 18
La Caricature (Journal), 1832-1834 Grouping of more than 80 political or genre lithographs bound a posteriori, some enhanced with watercolors by Henry Monnier, Charlet, J. Grandville, Decamp, Traviès, Delaporte and others. Oblong 27 x 36 cm Old restorations and some missing parts. Collection of the most important caricature journal of the 19th century, launched and directed by Charles Philipon. La Caricature fought against the power of Louis-Philippe I, making it an important publication in the history of French caricature. Faced with royal censorship bans and other lawsuits brought by the authorities, Philipon founded the Association pour la liberté de la presse (Association for Press Freedom) to ensure the survival of his journal and finance its various expenses. In return, subscribers received a monthly lithograph. It appeared under the name La Lithographie mensuelle from August 1832 to 1834.
