Prosecuting Counsel.
Ordre des avocats de Paris . L’Assiette au beurre. samedi 29 août 1903. 31x24,5cm.The person representing the State Counsel’s office is a traditional target for caricaturists. They see in this figure the very incarnation of a justice that is exclusively punitive, even synonymous with death. Launay’s drawing in red and black almost makes the prosecutor an evil personage. The caption by Gaston de Pawlowski mocks legal jargon. .
