EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "July Fourteenth, from The Complete Works of Beranger, 1836" takes us back to the heart of the French Revolution. Captured by renowned artists Auguste Raffet Lacoste and Eugene Guillaumot, this nineteenth-century wood engraving depicts a pivotal moment in history. In this powerful image, we witness the spirit of rebellion as Parisians take to the streets on Bastille Day. Men armed with guns and weaponry march forward, their determination evident in their eyes. They carry the weight of their country's struggle for freedom on their shoulders. Amidst the chaos, one man stands out - injured but not defeated. His wounded body bears witness to his unwavering commitment to the cause. Surrounding him are soldiers and sans-culottes alike, united in their fight against oppression. The scene is filled with raw emotion as people cheer for liberty while others tend to those wounded in battle. It serves as a poignant reminder of both the sacrifices made during times of war and our capacity for resilience. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this artwork preserves an important chapter in French history. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but feel a sense of awe at these brave individuals who fought for a better future. Auguste Raffet Lacoste and Eugene Guillaumot have skillfully captured not only a historical event but also the indomitable spirit that resides within all revolutionaries throughout time.
