EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and historically significant print captures a pivotal moment in French history. Depicting the caricatures of Charles X, the last Bourbon monarch, and Henri Duc de Bordeaux, it transports us back to 25th July 1830. The colour litho technique used here brings out the vividness of the scene. The image showcases an intriguing juxtaposition between two figures: Charles X, with his regal presence and Henri Duc de Bordeaux, a young boy who would later become known as Henry V. This composition symbolizes the restoration of the Bourbon Monarchy during this period. Intriguingly, we see elements such as cannon balls and artillery surrounding them, suggesting a time of conflict or unrest. The white flag held by Henri may allude to surrender or peace negotiations taking place during this tumultuous era. This artwork offers us a glimpse into French politics and power dynamics at that time. It serves as a reminder of how art can capture historical moments while also providing social commentary through satire and caricature. Preserved in Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this print is not only visually captivating but also holds immense cultural value for those interested in exploring French history or studying political shifts within European monarchies.
