EDITORS COMMENTS
Stopped at a Barricade: A Glimpse into Parisian Life During the Commune of 1871 This handcoloured lithograph, titled "Stopped at a Barricade," offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of Parisians during the tumultuous events of the Paris Commune of 1871. The image, created by R.V. after an illustration by Francois Courboin from Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris, published by William Heinemann in London in 1898, depicts a scene of two elegantly dressed women, their crinoline dresses and extravagant hats contrasting sharply with the harsh reality of the barricade before them. In the foreground, a soldier with a rifle stands firm, barring the way forward for the passengers of a horse-drawn bus or omnibus. The vehicle, bearing the insignia of the Compagnie Générale des Omnibus, is stopped at a barricade erected near the Palais Royal, a symbol of the ongoing struggle between the Parisian citizens and the French government. The women, their faces etched with concern and determination, present their papers to the soldier, hoping to be granted passage. The man in the background, also dressed in the fashion of the time, appears to be assisting them in their endeavour. The scene is a poignant reminder of the tenacity and resilience of the Parisian people during this turbulent period in their history. The intricate details of the women's dresses, with their train and mantelets, and their elaborate hats, topped with feathers, are beautifully rendered in the handcoloured lithograph. The image, a testament to the richness and complexity of 19th-century French society, culture, and aesthetics, offers a captivating glimpse into a bygone era.
