EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching, titled "FRENCH REVOLUTION, 1789. The Storming of the Bastille, 14 July 1789" takes us back to a pivotal moment in history. Created in France in 1817, it vividly portrays the dramatic events that unfolded during the storming of the Bastille on that fateful day. The image captures the chaos and intensity of this revolutionary act as Parisians take to the streets with determination and fervor. The city's skyline looms ominously in the background, hinting at both destruction and liberation. Flames engulf parts of buildings nearby, symbolizing not only physical destruction but also a burning desire for change. In this early etching, every stroke tells a story - from brave individuals leading the charge towards freedom to others joining forces against oppression. It serves as a powerful reminder of how ordinary people can come together to challenge authority and fight for their rights. As we commemorate Bastille Day each year on July 14th, this print serves as a visual testament to those who fought valiantly for liberty during one of history's most significant revolutions. It invites us to reflect on our own roles within society and reminds us that even today, we have an obligation to stand up against injustice wherever it may be found.
