EDITORS COMMENTS
Recognized Innocence, 1786 (1885) captures a pivotal moment in French history when justice prevailed over wrongful condemnation. This powerful print by Binet transports us to the meeting of parliament between Paris and Rouen in 1786, where victory was declared for those who had been unjustly accused of crimes. The image depicts an interior scene filled with political significance. The concept of innocence permeates the atmosphere as men and women gather to discuss matters of law and justice. A crucifixion symbolizes the religious undertones that influenced this court case, highlighting the intersection between Christianity and politics. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the composition. The fur-clad figures wearing ermine robes represent authority and power, while a female figure stands out among them, representing innocence personified. The monochrome palette adds depth and intensity to the scene, emphasizing its historical context. This engraving from the late 19th century not only showcases Binet's artistic skill but also serves as a reminder of France's commitment to upholding justice even during turbulent times. It is a testament to how society can recognize its mistakes and rectify them through collective action. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time – witnessing both triumph over injustice and humanity's enduring pursuit of truth.
