Nair de Teffé, the first brazilian caricaturist.

The Virtual Gallery presents cartoons by Nair de Teffé (1886-1981), whose artistic name was Rian. She became famous and notorious in the early 20th century, especially from 1909 on, when she married the then President of the Republic, Marshall Hermes da Fonseca, in 1913. Her skecthes reveal a remarkable artist, a pioneer cartunist whose independent personality broke with the taboos of the epoch.
