Le Pèlerin is a French weekly newspaper that began on July 12, 1873. Founded by the Bayard Presse journalist group, which formed the initial nucleus. The founders set out to strengthen the Catholic presence, adopting an anti-Semitic line for this purpose, and from time to time cartoons appeared accusing the Jews of the ills of French society, along with religiously motivated accusations about Jesus and Christianity. The cartoons were created by Achille Lemot, and later illustrated by Amédée Vignola and Henri Genévrier. The newspaper's headlines usually had a belligerent statement, and in the Dreyfus affair the paper was one of its opponents. Beginning in 1896, the title pages appeared in color and the circulation of the newspaper reached some 150,000 copies.
