La Chimie aux Abois
- 1903
Full-page offset lithograph print in two colors (black and yellow/orange). "La Chimie aux Abois" appeared as a full-page illustration in the French satirical magazine L'Assiette au beurre (The Trough) in 1903. The print's title translates to "Chemistry at Bay," and shows two chemists standing in puzzled contemplation over a dish of milk. Beneath the title, a caption reads, "Voyons, sacredie! Que faut-il en somme pour faire du lait pur? Un corps gras, des seis phosphates, de l'albumine, quelques matieres organiques, et puis... Et puis une vache!" (Translation: "Come on, by God! What does it take to make pure milk? Some fats, some phosphates, albumin, some organic materials, and then... And then a cow!")
