Epoque Francaise Republique Floreal
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled 'Epoque du 30 Floreal an V de la Republique Francaise' (Epoch of the 30th of Floreal, Year V of the French Republic), offers a fascinating glimpse into the political turmoil of the French Revolution. The image on the left portrays the Republic of France as a regal woman, dressed in the Phrygian cap symbolizing liberty, drawing a slip of paper from an urn labeled 'Directoire de la Republique Francaise.' The paper bears the name of Etienne-Francois-Louis-Honore Le Tourneur, signaling his expulsion as one of the five directors of the French Republic. The woman turns to indicate Le Tourneur's departure, as his cape and sword lie discarded on the floor, and he hastens to leave in a state of haste. In the background, the remaining four directors dance together, seemingly oblivious to the political upheaval. This print, dated 1797, is a poignant reminder of the unpredictable nature of revolutionary politics during this period. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the scene to life, making it a captivating addition to any historical collection.
