Project Gutenberg 2014-01-26 Public domain in the USA. 146 Various Verschillende Various, Various L'Illustration, No. 2498, 10 Janvier 1891 Produced by Rénald Lévesque "L'Illustration, No. 2498, 10 Janvier 1891" by Various is a periodical publication written during the late 19th century. This work presents a collection of articles, illustrations, and reports that reflect various aspects of Parisian life, including political affairs, societal critiques, and cultural observations of the time. The topics range from contemporary events and issues to lighter commentary on the society and public figures, making it a rich historical account of the era's zeitgeist. The opening of this issue introduces the reader to the whimsical notion of "Brioches politiques," a metaphorical pastry symbolizing the political climate, illustrated through the character of Maxime Lisbonne, an entrepreneur of satire. This curious establishment serves as a satirical commentary on the political machinations and public figures of the time, suggesting that while people consume these "political pastries," they remain blissfully unaware of the heavier implications behind them. Additionally, the text touches on current events such as election results, highlighting the societal significance of these happenings in the politically charged atmosphere of 1891 Paris, interspersed with humorous anecdotes and reflections on love, scandal, and the social fabric of the city.
