Le Juif-Errant (The Wandering Jew). Antisemitic Plate, France - 19th Century
Antisemitic plate - lithographic print, hand-painted from the period of the printing, published by Epinal. Lithograph by Oliver O. Pinot.
The lithograph is accompanied by verses of an antisemitic poem in rhyme, in French, about the legend of the wandering Jew. A Jew with a long curled beard, and a long nose, holding a walking stick in his hand is in the illustration. The people around him who depict the natives of the place seem much cleaner and tidier than him, and they are all looking at him suspiciously.
Similar lithographs were published in 19th century France bearing the title La Juif Errant in which the poem before us appears with the illustrations of the artist Francois Georgin.
Size: 30x40 cm.
Fine condition.
