Richard Wagner en caricatures : 130 reproductions de caricatures françaises, allemandes, anglaises, italiennes, portraits : autographes (lettre et musique) dessins originaux de J. Blass, Moloch et Tiret-Bognet
John Grand-Carteret's 1892 Larousse compilation gathers 130 French, German, English and Italian caricatures of Richard Wagner, with portraits, autographs and original drawings by J. Blass, Moloch and Tiret-Bognet, aimed at French readers following the Wagner controversies. The plates are pen-and-ink press cartoons with heavy hatching and exaggerated profiles: the composer's beret and jutting chin, figures riding donkeys or waving quill pens, labelled scrolls and stacks of scores against sparse backgrounds.
