EDITORS COMMENTS
April 18, 1791: Louis and Marie Antoinette's Desire to Escape Paris Thwarted This evocative print captures the moment of frustration and longing in the hearts of King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette of France. The image, titled 'Louis Restrained,' depicts the royal couple attempting to leave Paris for the safety and comfort of Versailles, only to be prevented and forced to return to the Tuileries Palace. The year 1791 was a pivotal moment in French history, as the French Revolution was beginning to gain momentum. The monarchy's popularity was waning, and the people of Paris were growing restless. In an attempt to escape the unrest, Louis and Marie Antoinette sought refuge in their beloved Versailles estate. However, their plans were thwarted when they were stopped at the city gates and compelled to return to Paris. The couple's disappointment and resignation are palpable in this print. Marie Antoinette clutches a fan tightly, her eyes downcast, while Louis looks resolutely ahead, his hands bound behind his back. The Tuileries Palace, a symbol of their captivity, looms in the background. The caption 'They'll try again in June' hints at the couple's determination to escape, but for now, they are trapped in the heart of the revolution. This poignant print offers a glimpse into the personal struggles of the French monarchy during a time of great political upheaval. It serves as a reminder of the complexities of history and the human emotions that often lie beneath the surface of major historical events.
