EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical event known as the "Delivrance des embmures de Carcassonne" in August 1303. The people of Carcassonne and Albi gather together to liberate numerous prisoners held captive in the Inquisition dungeons. Amidst the chaos, Bernard Delicieux valiantly attempts to calm the crowd with his engaging speeches, which seem to amuse them. Jean de Pecquigny, a prominent reformer from Languedoc, observes this invasion of the dungeons with great interest. The painting by Jean-Paul Laurens beautifully depicts this momentous occasion. Created in 1879, it showcases intricate details and measures an impressive size of 4.3 x 3.5 meters. This masterpiece now resides in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Carcassonne, France. The photographer Leonard de Selva skillfully captures this artwork through his lens, preserving its essence for generations to come. With copyright no longer applicable due to its age, this photograph is available for public enjoyment. Through this image, viewers are transported back in time to witness a powerful act of liberation and resistance against oppression. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring spirit and our relentless pursuit of freedom throughout history.
