To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Therein we learn that to the few Huard is known as a most able oil and pastel painter of seafaring folk ; and the etchings and chalk drawings reproduced con- vince us that it is a well-earned reputation. The double-page centre drawing of the number consists of a masterly Return from MasSy in which we see the good souls repairing homewards in the moon- light, soothed and contented in mind and in spirit. A few pages further on we come to two piou-piousy or " tommies," enjoying their Plaisir du Di...manche : they are seated, and one of them smokes a cheap cigar. The comment runs, *' You wanted to come here so as to show yourself off smoking a cigar ; but we could have had much more fun at the station watching the trains go through." Le Rire has published a quantity of Huard's work, the strength and vigour of which never seems to fail. The subjects are frequently drawn from the quays of Paris, or from caf(6s and restaurants patronised by visitors from the provinces to the gay city. The humour of a drawing called Tlages^ in CHARLES HUARD 55 which a rather vulgar Paris tripper to the seaside, paddling with her friends, exclaims in astonished appreciation — "By Jove, sand like at Charenton" (shall we translate Putney ?), is apparent to all.
