EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Revolution of Geneva from 7 to 8 October 1846, also known as the fazyst revolution. The image showcases the defense of St Gervais on October 7,1846, with a breathtaking view of Place de Bel Air and Ponts-de-l Ile. As government troops retreat in the background, tension fills the air. The scene is filled with raw emotion and chaos. People can be seen running through the streets, some armed and ready for battle while others seek shelter or observe from a distance. The architecture surrounding them stands tall and stoic amidst this upheaval. The Revolution of Geneva was a pivotal event that marked an important turning point in Swiss history. It was driven by political unrest and social inequality, as citizens fought for their rights and demanded change. This photograph serves as a visual testament to their determination and resilience. Through Stefano Bianchetti's lens, we are transported back in time to witness this historic moment firsthand. The composition expertly captures both the intensity of conflict and the beauty of Geneva's urban landscape. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, let us reflect on how far society has come since those tumultuous days while acknowledging that revolutions like these have shaped our world into what it is today.
