Summary
[edit]DescriptionIon Theodorescu-Sion - Melancolie de toamnă. — Căderea frunzelor, Furnica, 16 oct 1908.JPG |
English: Melancolie de toamnă. — Căderea frunzelor ("Autumn melancholy. — Leaf-fall"), cartoon published in Furnica, the Romanian satirical magazine. The Conservative Party leaders as street-sweepers, an allegory of their steady preparation for a return in government. Front to bottom rows: Take Ionescu, Alexandru A. Badărău, Nicolae Fleva, Petre P. Carp. The orange leaves on the ground carry various names, reflecting aspects of Romania's administrative, judicial and economic policies: "Judges", "Trusts", "Inspectors", "Ambulance [Service]", "Gendarmes", "Counties" etc. The original caption reads: "Măturătorii de reforme" făcând exerciţiu în aşteptarea căderei liberalilor de la putere (" 'Reform sweepers' keeping fit in preparation for the Liberals' fall from power"). In the background, hanging from a tree, is a skeletal figure, wearing Romanian folk dress, and marked "The Budget". Note: Theodorescu-Sion's T-and-ring monogram is visible on the far left. In this issue of Furnica, he is introduced with the pseudonym Teodosion. |
