This November 1936 cover of Ridendo magazine offers a delightful window into French interwar humor, specifically crafted for the medical profession. The illustration by Jacques Touchet playfully satirizes the Salon d'Automne art exhibition, depicting a bohemian artist figure in his characteristic black hat and polka-dot scarf, contemplating both a modernist stone sculpture and a provocative nude painting.
Ridendo, which translates roughly as 'Laughing,' was a unique periodical that combined sophisticated humor with insider medical references, distributed primarily through pharmaceutical companies to French physicians. The cover's bold graphic design employs a striking orange and green palette typical of the era's commercial illustration, while the satirical content reflects the ongoing cultural dialogue between traditional and modern art that characterized the mid-1930s Paris art scene.
A charming example of niche French publishing from the interwar period, this piece bridges the worlds of medical ephemera, satirical illustration, and Art Deco graphic design.
