"Le Charivari" was an illustrated newspaper published in
Paris ,France from1832 to1937 ."Le Charivari" published
caricatures ,political cartoons andreview s. In1835 the government banned political caricature, thus Le Charivari began publishing satires of everyday life.To reduce their financial risk of censorship fines with the satirical anti-monarchist illustrated newspaper "La Caricature", which had more pages and printed on more expensive paper, caricaturist
Charles Philipon and his brother-in-law Gabriel Aubert started "Le Charivari" which contained humorous, but not as political, content. Ownership of the paper changed often due to censorship, and related taxes and fines."Le Charivari" published daily from
1832 to1936 , and then weekly until1937 .In
