EDITORS COMMENTS
This frontispiece print, titled "Charge against Necker" is a remarkable piece of art that offers a glimpse into the tumultuous times of the French Revolution. Created by an unknown artist in the 18th century, it serves as the opening illustration for "Supplement à la vie privée et ministère de M. Necker" edited by un citoyen and published in Genève in 1790. The engraving showcases a satirical caricature depicting Jacques Necker, the Director-General of Finances during this period. Necker's role was pivotal as he attempted to manage France's economic crisis leading up to the revolution. The image portrays him surrounded by various symbols and allegories representing his alleged mismanagement and controversial decisions. With its intricate details and clever symbolism, this frontispiece captures both political commentary and artistic expression. It reflects the tensions and criticisms faced by Necker during his tenure, highlighting how public opinion played a significant role in shaping events during this transformative era. Preserved at the Bibliotheque Municipale de Lyon in France, this historical artifact provides valuable insights into one of history's most influential revolutions. Leonard de Selva's expertly captured photograph allows us to appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship but also invites us to delve deeper into understanding the complexities surrounding figures like Jacques Necker amidst such revolutionary fervor.
