EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Feast of the Bodyguards, Flanders regiments, Montmorency dragoons and National Guards of Versailles. Trampling the National Cockade, they display the black cockade, a sign of the 'Aristocratic Confederation', 1st October 1789, Opera Hall" transports us back to a pivotal moment in history. The image captures a grand banquet scene filled with an abundance of people celebrating amidst opulent surroundings. In this historic gathering at the Opera Hall in 1789 France, we witness soldiers from various regiments trampling on the National Cockade while proudly displaying their allegiance to the "Aristocratic Confederation" through donning black cockades. This act symbolizes their resistance against revolutionary ideals that were sweeping across France during this time. The artist Jean Louis Prieur skillfully depicts every intricate detail within this scene. From the chandeliers casting a warm glow over the room to soldiers clad in military attire standing tall and proud, each element adds depth and richness to this artwork. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder's collection at Musee Carnavalet in Paris, we are transported back to an era marked by political turmoil and societal upheaval. It serves as a reminder of how art can capture significant moments in history and allows us to reflect upon our past.
