EDITORS COMMENTS
Nina Lassave, the enigmatic and alleged accomplice of Guiseppe Fieschi, stands before us in this 1835 photograph. Fieschi, a Italian political exile, was infamous for his attempt to assassinate King Louis Philippe of France, an act that took place on the Rue de la Chaussée-d'Antin in Paris on the 25th of January, 1835. The image of Nina Lassave, dressed in a simple yet elegant bonnet and shawl, belies the intrigue and danger that surrounded her. She was often described as Fieschi's lover and confidante, and was believed to have played a crucial role in the failed assassination plot. The photograph offers a glimpse into the life of this enigmatic figure, whose story has been shrouded in myth and legend. Some accounts suggest that Nina was a willing participant in the assassination attempt, while others claim that she was an innocent bystander who was mistakenly caught up in the chaos. Regardless of the truth, her image has become a symbol of the intrigue and danger that marked the political landscape of 19th century France. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the complex and often tumultuous relationship between politics and romance. Nina Lassave's story is one of love, loyalty, and danger, and her image continues to captivate and intrigue us to this day.
