EDITORS COMMENTS
Les Affiches - Illustration from Histoire d'un crime, 19th Century (b/w engraving) captures a pivotal moment in French history. In this print by Emile Antoine Bayard, we witness the aftermath of the Coup d'Etat on December 2nd, 1851. The streets of Paris are adorned with public notices, awakening its inhabitants to the shocking news. The scene depicts a bustling crowd of Parisians gathering around these posters plastered on every wall. Their expressions range from curiosity to concern as they read the unsettling information before them. This powerful illustration brings to life Victor Hugo's words in his work Cent dessins: Extraits des oeuvres de Victor Hugo. Victor Marie Hugo, one of France's most celebrated writers during the Romantic movement, is known for his profound literary contributions. As an author and playwright, he captured the essence of human emotions and societal issues through his works. Bayard's meticulous engraving skillfully portrays both the chaos and unity that emerged among Parisians during this tumultuous time. The image not only serves as a historical record but also highlights how art can convey significant moments in our collective memory. This print from Fine Art Finder transports us back to 19th-century France when political upheaval shook society to its core.
