Gazette du Bon Ton, 1914 - No. 7, Le Péché d'Envie ou La Panhard Convoitée 1914

"Le Péché d'Envie ou La Panhard Convoitée," a 1914 illustration by E. Ayres, is a satirical depiction of Parisian fashion and the burgeoning automobile industry. The artwork shows two women in stylish attire, one looking longingly at a man driving a Panhard car with a fashionable woman as his passenger. The scene satirizes the envy and desire for material possessions common in the era, highlighting the growing fascination with automobiles as a status symbol. The use of a simple, line-based style evokes the aesthetic of Art Deco and its embrace of geometric forms.
