EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Rare Animals" showcases a remarkable engraving by the French School from the 19th century. Housed in a private collection, this artwork offers a fascinating glimpse into history and politics during the French Revolution. The engraving depicts Louis XVI as a turkey, Marie Antoinette as a wolf, their children (the Dauphin and Princess Sophie) as wolf cubs, and Princess Elisabeth as another wolf. They are being escorted to prison in the Temple by a sans-culotte carrying both a pike and whip. The artist's satirical drawing brilliantly captures the anti-royalist sentiment of the time, ridiculing the royal family through clever symbolism. This scathing satire reflects upon monarchy, power dynamics, and political unrest prevalent during that era. The image portrays an intriguing blend of animals intertwined with human figures, emphasizing both their roles within society and their animalistic nature. It serves as an insightful commentary on European politics at that time. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder has beautifully reproduced this rare piece of art for all to appreciate its historical significance. With its rich detail and thought-provoking composition, "Rare Animals" invites viewers to delve deeper into France's turbulent past while marveling at the artistic skill behind this satirical masterpiece.
