EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history as the iconic Vendome Column, standing tall at 144 feet, is being demolished by order of the Commune. The column, which commemorated Napoleon I, once proudly adorned the town square of Place Vendome in Paris, France. The image showcases the aftermath of this destructive act, with debris scattered across the landscape. The horizontal format emphasizes the magnitude of destruction caused by this conflict-ridden period known as "the Commune". In stark contrast to its former glory, all that remains now are remnants of what was once a grand monument. Photographer Franck skillfully captures both the physical and symbolic significance of this event through his use of photography. The absence of color adds an air of solemnity and timelessness to the scene. Dating back to 1870-1879, this archival photograph serves as a powerful reminder of historical events that shaped not only France but also Europe as a whole. It invites viewers to reflect on themes such as power dynamics, political turmoil, and cultural heritage. Franck's print offers an opportunity for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike to own a piece that encapsulates a significant moment in time – one that forever altered the landscape and narrative surrounding Napoleon's legacy.
