La Caricature (1880–1904)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
La Caricature was a satirical journal that was published in Paris, France, between 1880 and 1904. It had a lively and colorful layout, and made full use of the newly invented photogravure technology. Its focus was on social satire rather than political commentary. La Caricature covered the theater, news events, gossip and topical subjects such as the vote for women or seaside vacations. The founding editor, Albert Robida, left in 1892. The journal began to decline in quality, went through various changes of ownership and management, and eventually was merged with a rival tabloid.
