EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts "Le Devouement de Madame de Sombreuil - Melle (Mademoiselle) (Marie) de Sombreuil" a heroic figure of the French Revolution. The engraving, featured in Alphonse de Lamartine's "Histoire des Girondins" from 1865-1866, showcases the bravery and selflessness of Marie de Sombreuil (1774-1823). In this historical scene, we witness a young girl standing amidst a crowd, her determined gaze fixed on something beyond our view. She is surrounded by chaos and unrest as the revolution unfolds around her. Behind her stands her father, his protective presence symbolizing the strength of family bonds during times of turmoil. Marie's story is one of heroism and sacrifice. Legend has it that during the September Massacres in 1792, she pleaded with revolutionary guards to spare the lives of imprisoned nobles by offering them a glass filled with their own blood. This act exemplifies her unwavering dedication to defending others at great personal risk. The artist Stefano Bianchetti skillfully captures this pivotal moment in history through intricate details and masterful shading techniques. Through his work, we are transported back to an era defined by revolution and upheaval. This thought-provoking print serves as a powerful reminder of the resilience and courage displayed by individuals like Marie de Sombreuil during tumultuous times. It invites us to
