EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases a piece of Republican propaganda in support of the foundation of the Third Republic, dating back to around 1881. The coloured engraving, created by the French School in the 19th century, is currently housed at Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet in Paris, France. The image depicts a fascinating cartoon strip that highlights the numerous accomplishments and benefits brought about by the Republic. Symbolizing progress and unity, a train adorned with flags proudly chugs along while carrying an array of citizens from different social backgrounds. The hat-wearing figures within each wagon represent various aspects of society coming together to exercise their right to vote during elections. Through this visual narrative, viewers are reminded of how legislative advances have shaped their lives positively under republican rule. A kiss on a ballot paper signifies gratitude towards these achievements as citizens salute their republicans for fostering change and progress. This engraving serves as both historical documentation and political statement. It encapsulates the essence of democracy by emphasizing citizen participation in shaping legislation while celebrating what "the Republic has done". Its intricate details invite contemplation on societal advancements achieved through collective action. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in French history when hope for a better future was ignited through democratic ideals embodied by the Third Republic's foundation.
