Antisemitic Lithograph, The Wandering Jew as Seen in Brussels in 1774. Paris, 1860
Le véritable portrait du Juif-errant tel qu'il a été vu à Bruxelles en Brabant, en 1774.
The lithograph is accompanied by stanzas of an antisemitic song in rhyme, in French, about the legend of the wandering Jew. It tells of a meeting in 1774 between 2 residents of Brussels and a wandering Jew.
In 19th-century France, similar lithographs were published bearing the caption La Juif Errant, in which the stanzas of this same song appear with illustrations by the painter Francois Georgin.
32x42 cm.
Fine condition. Minimal aging stains, blemishes in the margins.
