EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Pastimes of the French Royal Family in the Temple" takes us back to a significant period in history, capturing the essence of life within the confines of imprisonment. Engraved by Jonnard and created by Charlerie, H. de la in the 19th century, this artwork offers a glimpse into the daily activities of King Louis XVI, Queen Marie Antoinette, and their young son Dauphin. In this somber setting, we witness an intimate scene where Marie Antoinette is engrossed in sewing while her husband Louis XVI reads beside her. The presence of their jailer reminds us that even amidst confinement, they were not exempt from surveillance. Despite their circumstances, it is heartening to see them finding solace through simple pastimes and maintaining some semblance of normalcy. The image also hints at another aspect: education did not cease for young Dauphin during his time behind bars. Engaged with his lessons under the watchful eye of his parents and jailer alike, he represents hope for a future beyond these prison walls. As we gaze upon this poignant engraving from our private collection courtesy of Ken Welsh via Fine Art Finder's archives (www. bridgemanimages. com), we are reminded that history often unfolds within unexpected settings. It serves as a reminder that even those who once held immense power can find themselves imprisoned physically but never spiritually or intellectually.
