EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a significant moment in history - the Dreyfus case in Paris on October 2,1898. The image depicts an anti-Dreyfusard demonstration near the Wagram room, where Dreyfus supporters were scheduled to meet. This illustration was featured in "Le Pelerin" magazine on October 16,1898. In the scene, we see a bustling street filled with people and horses. A police officer mounted on his horse stands out amidst the crowd. The atmosphere is tense as individuals wearing hats and kepis gather together to express their opposition to Captain Alfred Dreyfus. This event took place during a time of heightened anti-Semitism in France, and it became known as the Dreyfus affair. Captain Dreyfus was falsely accused of treason and convicted based on forged evidence. The case sparked intense debates about justice, prejudice, and nationalism within French society. The artist behind this powerful illustration remains unknown but managed to capture the energy and complexity of this historical moment. Stefano Bianchetti's reproduction allows us to reflect upon this dark chapter in French history that ultimately led to a reexamination of societal values. This photograph serves as a reminder of how public demonstrations can shape narratives and influence social change while also highlighting the importance of seeking truth and justice even when faced with widespread discrimination or bias.
