1790 Bastille Celebrate Champ Commemoration Gathered Mars Occasion Parisians Revolution Revolutionary Seine Thousands
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the spirit of the Revolutionary celebrations on the Champ de Mars in Paris, as thousands of Parisians gathered to commemorate the fall of the Bastille on July 14, 1790. The historic event marked a turning point in the French Revolution, symbolizing the people's victory over the monarchy and the beginning of a new era. The image, taken from across the Seine River, offers a panoramic view of the festivities. The Champ de Mars, a large open field, is filled with people dressed in their finest attire, waving flags and raising their arms in jubilation. The Eiffel Tower, although not yet built, is represented by the silhouette of the Mont Valerian, a hill that once offered a popular vantage point for observing Paris. The commemoration of the fall of the Bastille was a significant moment in French history, as it demonstrated the unity and determination of the people to overthrow the old regime and establish a new democratic government. The event set the stage for the Fête de la Fédération, a grand national festival held a few weeks later, which further solidified the bond between the people and their new revolutionary government. This print is a testament to the power of collective action and the enduring spirit of the French people. It serves as a reminder of the historical significance of the French Revolution and the impact it had on the world. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of Revolutionary history or French cultural artifacts.
