*Marie Duval: maverick Victorian cartoonist* offers the first critical
appraisal of the work of Marie Duval (Isabelle Émilie de Tessier
[1847–1890]), one of the most unusual, pioneering and visionary cartoonists
of the later nineteenth century. It discusses key themes and practices of
Duval’s vision and production, relative to the wider historic social,
cultural and economic environments in which her work was made, distributed
and read, identifing Duval as an exemplary radical practitioner. The book
interrogates the relationships between the practices and the forms of
print, story-telling, drawing and stage performance. It focuses on the
creation of new types of cultural work by women and highlights the style of
Duval’s drawings relative to both the visual conventions of theatre
production and the significance of the visualisation of amateurism and
vulgarity. *Marie Duval: maverick Victorian cartoonist* establishes Duval
as a unique but exemplary figure in a transformational period of the
nineteenth century.
