EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Dreyfus case of 1898. The engraving, featured in "Le petit parisien" depicts a hearing of the War Council during the trial of Commander Esterhazy. This historic event took place amidst a backdrop of anti-Semitism and controversy that shook French society. The image showcases the solemnity and gravity of the courtroom as lawyers, judges, and officials gather to examine the evidence presented. In this pivotal trial, Alfred Dreyfus stood accused, igniting a fierce debate about justice, prejudice, and national loyalty. The artist behind this engraving is Stefano Bianchetti from the 19th century French School. Through his skilled craftsmanship, he brings to life an important chapter in European history that continues to resonate today. The Dreyfus affair remains emblematic not only for France but also for Europe as it exposed deep-rooted prejudices within society. It challenged notions of fairness and equality before the law while highlighting divisions based on religion and ethnicity. As we reflect upon this powerful image captured by Stefano Bianchetti's lens, let us remember how far we have come in our pursuit of justice and equality. May it serve as a reminder that even in times marked by injustice or discrimination, there are individuals who dare to stand up for what is right – just like Alfred Dreyfus did over a century ago.
