EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the historic moment of "The Storming of the Bastille on 14 July 1789". Created by Charles Thevenin, a renowned artist of the neoclassical era, this etching depicts a scene filled with anger, violence, and rebellion. In the foreground, a group of heroic men can be seen attacking the imposing Bastille prison building. Their determined faces reflect their unwavering commitment to freedom and justice during the French Revolution. Smoke billows from cannons as chaos ensues in Paris. The image transports us back to that fateful day in July 1789 when ordinary citizens rose up against an oppressive regime. This event marked a turning point in history, symbolizing the people's defiance against tyranny and their fight for liberty. Through his masterful use of light and shadow in this black and white composition, Thevenin emphasizes both the gravity of the situation and its historical significance. Every detail is meticulously captured, showcasing his artistic skill. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork today at The Met museum, we are reminded not only of France's turbulent past but also how art has preserved these moments for future generations to learn from. It serves as a testament to our collective human spirit - one that seeks justice even amidst chaos and violence.
