In 19th-century Paris, caricature became both entertainment and social commentary, blurring the line between art and social science. Judith Wechsler explores how physiognomy and satirical illustration shaped perceptions of class, politics, and personality in a rapidly changing city. A vivid study of images that made and mocked modernity.
