EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history, showcasing the "Declaration of the Rights of Man" during the French Revolution in 1789. The image, featured as part of a calendar for November 1904, beautifully illustrates the profound words "men are born and remain free" ("Les hommes naissent et demurent libres") from this groundbreaking declaration. The composition is thoughtfully arranged with symbolic elements on either side of the text. To the left stands a fasces, representing strength and unity, while to the right we see a branch from a Horse Chestnut tree, symbolizing growth and prosperity. These visual cues enhance our understanding of the significance behind these powerful words.
