EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Voting for the National Assembly in the Theatre of the Deaf and Dumb Asylum, Paris" offers a unique glimpse into a significant moment in French history. Created by an English School artist during the 19th century, this print captures a scene that unfolded on March 4,1871. The image showcases individuals from the deaf and dumb community actively participating in the democratic process of electing members to the National Assembly. Set within the grandeur of a theater hall, these citizens exercise their right to vote with determination and enthusiasm. The setting itself is symbolic; it represents both inclusivity and empowerment as it welcomes those who are often marginalized due to their disabilities. The Theatre of the Deaf and Dumb Asylum becomes not only a place for artistic expression but also serves as a platform for political engagement. This artwork sheds light on France's commitment to democracy and equality, showcasing its progressive stance towards enfranchisement. It reminds us that every voice matters, regardless of one's ability or background. As we reflect upon this historical moment captured through artistry, let us be inspired by these brave individuals who defied societal expectations and made their mark on French politics. Their actions serve as a testament to resilience, reminding us that true democracy thrives when all voices are heard.
