Departure of the Three Orders for Versailles - A Glimpse into Revolutionary France

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This coloured engraving, titled "Departure of the Three Orders for Versailles, 3rd May 1789" offers a fascinating glimpse into one of the defining moments in French history. Created by an anonymous artist from the 18th century French School, this print captures a pivotal event that would set in motion the course of the French Revolution. Intricately detailed and richly colored, this artwork depicts three distinct groups departing towards Versailles. The Estates General - comprised of clergy, soldiers, nobles - can be seen embarking on their journey to engage in crucial discussions and decision-making processes that would shape the future of France. Symbolizing both hope and tension, this image encapsulates a society on the brink of transformation. The Third Estate or Tiers État stands prominently among them; representing ordinary citizens who were demanding social equality and political representation. Their presence signifies an emerging force challenging traditional power structures. The historical significance is palpable as these orders depart amidst swirling emotions and mounting societal unrest. This engraving serves as a visual testament to an era marked by profound change and upheaval. Preserved within Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris today, this remarkable piece continues to captivate viewers with its intricate details and vivid colors. It invites us to reflect upon a time when revolution was brewing beneath seemingly calm waters – forever altering not only France but also shaping modern democracy worldwide
