Brass Liberty Louis Xvi Medallion Plate Platter Brassware
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a brass plaque known as "Moon: Vive le Roy, vive Necker, vive la liberte 1789". Created by the French School in the 18th century, this exquisite piece measures 15.9 cm and is currently housed at the Musee Crozatier in Le Puy-en-Velay, France. The intricately designed plaque features an inscription that reads "Vive le Roy, vive Necker, vive la liberte1789" which translates to "Long live the King, long live Necker, long live liberty". This powerful message reflects the spirit of the time during the French Revolution (1788-1795) when cries for freedom and equality echoed throughout France. With its symbolic representation of Louis XVI's reign and allegorical references to liberty, this brass artwork serves as a testament to an era marked by profound political change. The detailed craftsmanship and decorative elements make it a remarkable example of copperware from that period. As we admire this historic artifact captured through photography, let us reflect on its significance within French history. It reminds us of the passion for revolution that swept across society during those turbulent times. This image invites us to appreciate both the artistic beauty and historical context behind such masterpieces while honoring their contribution to our understanding of human progress.
