EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a historic moment in French history, depicting the meeting between Louis XVI and the new Mayor of Paris, Jean Sylvain Bailly, on July 17,1789. Painted by artist Jean-Paul Laurens in the 19th or early 20th century, this artwork showcases an important event during the French Revolution. Bailly was one of the key figures behind the Oath of the Tennis Court and played a significant role in shaping revolutionary France. Elected as Mayor of Paris by the Commune just one day after the storming of Bastille, he symbolized a new era for local government. In this scene from outside Hotel de Ville in Paris, Louis XVI is shown arriving on horseback to meet Bailly. The atmosphere appears cordial and respectful as they engage in conversation while surrounded by courtiers and guards. Only men are present at this formal gathering. The painting beautifully portrays both politicians with solicitous expressions, highlighting their courteous interaction amidst political turmoil. The background features other people staying nearby who seem to be respecting their presence. This artwork serves as a testament to an important chapter in French history when power dynamics were shifting dramatically. It encapsulates not only a royal visit but also signifies how public servants like Bailly played crucial roles during times of great change and transition.
