Both would introduce in their work shared ideas about violence and lies. In addition, Ibels' text âEst-ce une Croix ou un Sabre?...â, presented in his artwork, and Zola's âLettre Ă la Franceâ both shared their shared ideas about a âsicknessâ France was suffering in their citizen's support of anti-Dreyfusard. Ibels expressed this ideology of a sickness by utilizing imagery of exhausted and tired soldiers in his drawings to demonstrate uniformed, conformity amongst citizens in support of anti-Dreysford. As Zola has famously said, "Discipline means obedience," Zola expressed an overarching view of soldiers unwilling to rule against a commander in chief for fear of punishment, an ideology that is also reflected in Ibels' work.In addition, they both had a share of language. Ibels' âLe Coup de PĂšre Françoisâ and Zola's use of words such as âtyrannyâ, âbootâ, âswordâ, and âdictatorâ created a sense of menace.

early
Dreyfusards (Those who supported Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish captain in the French Army) to prove the innocence of Alfred Dreyfus in his conviction of selling military secrets to the German government. As a result, this caused a series of anti-Jewish controversies that Ibels addressed in his artwork, knows as âDreyfusard artâ. Before the Dreyfus affair, Ibels was like a vigilante artist supporting the cause but would soon publicly come out and change his stance in the Jewish newspaper, La Libre Parole. In specific, Ibels' artwork of caricatures was created in an effort to present how the Dreyfus Affair was more of a French rather than Jewish issue. It was through his artwork that he would campaign to counteract ideas of national identity in France, that attempted to exclude Jews, in an effort to go against the ideas of anti-Dreyfusism and become an activist for social change.
446:, and collaborate due to their common fight for Dreyfus and rivalries with anti-Dreyfusard artists. Artwork such as LaTerre would present his, and Zola's, involvement in political-activism during this time. In addition, because he had experienced a position in both sides, his iconography during the Dreyfus Affair would become recognized as an encyclopedia of blogger-like pro- or anti-Dreyfus imagery. For example, Ibels' visuals, such as the cover of his 1898 âAllons-y! Histoire Contemporaine,â was published in an effort to mock and question military's interference in civilian court, and indicate the Jewish had no association in the movement that grew around Dreyfus. As a result, Ibels became recognized as the driving force behind the popularization of "Allons-y!" as a catchphrase associated with artwork aimed at exposing and criticizing anti-Dreyfusard propaganda.

and entertainment, and attacked bourgeois values. Ibels is known for his skillfully crafted and precise lines. Ibels' first exhibit also took place in 1891 at the Salon des
Independants. And in 1892, he created eight color lithographs for the 1892-93 season of the Theatre Libre in Montmartre. Inspired by contemporary life, Ibels' work consisted of subjects drawn from modern Paris such as the cafe, boxing rings, and the circus. The characteristics in subject and technique of simplistic colors and shapes within his work can also be likened to artists such a as Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Adolphe Willette, and Theophile Alexandre Steinlen.

Henri-Gabriel painted various fans and one was similar to the style of Toulouse-Lautrec who used the theme of clowns in his paintings and lithographs. This resulted in a friendship as they would go to the circus together frequently for hours. This is where he would get his starting points for his drawings and pictures. He developed a style in his profiles of clowns , circus houses, and acrobats. In 1893, they also produced lithographs together for an album titled

technique, in which he used tiny dots of color to create a sense of light and form in his paintings. His work often focused on capturing the effects of light and color through flat silhouettes, which can be seen is his work such as the Cafe
Concert. On the other hand, Ibels's lithographs often showcased a more narrative-driven approach, with bold lines and rich textures. Regardless of differences, the incorporation of Ibels' lithographs into other artist's drawings suggest that Ibel's work was influential.

This is a Hebrew word for âprophetâ and Ibels was a member since its 1889 founding. Though he was a part of the Societe de Independants "from a young age," he made his debut during the Nabi movement when he became one of the original members of Les Nabis.
