EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Women March on Versailles, 5/6 October 1789" by the French School in the 19th century captures a pivotal moment during the French Revolution. The image depicts a massive crowd of determined women marching towards the opulent Palace of Versailles, their faces etched with desperation and determination. The scene is charged with emotion as these brave women protest against starvation and hunger that had plagued France for far too long. Armed with pitchforks and other makeshift weapons, they demand justice from their monarchs who seemed oblivious to their suffering. The procession symbolizes not only an act of rebellion but also a turning point in history. It marks the shift in power dynamics as ordinary citizens rise up against an oppressive regime. Their unified voices echo through time, reminding us of the strength that lies within collective action. Through this engraving, we are transported back to a tumultuous era where hope mingled with despair. It serves as a powerful reminder of how ordinary individuals can ignite extraordinary change when faced with injustice. Ken Welsh's masterful print allows us to bear witness to this historic event, capturing both its grandeur and its underlying significance. As we gaze upon it today, let us remember those courageous women who dared to challenge authority and paved the way for future generations fighting for equality and justice.
