EDITORS COMMENTS
This trade card showcases a chromolitho print of Rouget de Lisle, the renowned French composer of the Marseillaise. The image transports us back to a significant moment in history when de Lisle first sang his iconic anthem at the home of Dietrich, Mayor of Strasbourg, on April 24th, 1792. The composition beautifully captures the essence of this historical event. De Lisle stands tall and proud, passionately belting out his revolutionary song while surrounded by an attentive audience. The men and women in attendance are dressed in fashionable clothing that reflects the trends of 19th-century France. The interior setting adds depth to the scene, with elegant furniture and pianos enhancing its grandeur. This trade card not only serves as promotional material but also provides an educational glimpse into French culture during this era. As we admire this remarkable artwork from a private collection, it is impossible not to be moved by the significance of de Lisle's composition. The Marseillaise became one of France's most cherished anthems and remains a symbol of national pride even today. Through this print, we are reminded of Europe's rich musical heritage and how influential composers like Rouget de Lisle have shaped our collective identity. It is a testament to their talent that their work continues to resonate with people across generations and borders.
