EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Centenary of the French Revolution" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this engraving captures the essence of the grandeur and symbolism surrounding the French Revolution. The image showcases a scene from July 5,1789, during which representatives from all three orders – clergy, noblesse, and tiers etat – gathered at Versailles for the opening of States General. The intricate details of their ceremonial clothing and worn fashions transport us to that era's unique sense of style. Amidst this gathering stands a priest representing religious orders, highlighting their role in society during those turbulent times. The presence of various religious figures like priests and imams emphasizes how religion played a crucial part in shaping Europe's political landscape. As we delve into this historical snapshot, it becomes evident that this engraving not only commemorates France's centenary but also serves as a testament to its cultural heritage. From Paris to French overseas departments and territories, French culture has left an indelible mark on European history.
