EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a historic moment of opposition between two unlikely adversaries, the Franc Maconnerie and the Bakery. In this engraving from 1892, we witness a heated dispute that unfolded in the House of Deputes in France. Ernest Constans (1833-1913), a prominent depute and member of the secretive Franc Macon society, finds himself engaged in a fierce confrontation with Francis Laur (1844-1934), an ordinary baker. This image was featured in "Le petit parisien" one of the leading newspapers at that time. It offers us a glimpse into an era where political clashes were not limited to traditional rivals but extended to unexpected opponents like bakers. The intensity captured on their faces reflects the passion and conviction each man holds for his cause. The engraving serves as a reminder that even seemingly unrelated professions can become entangled within political debates. As we delve deeper into history, it becomes evident that this clash represents more than just personal animosity; it symbolizes larger societal tensions and ideological differences prevalent during that period. Preserved within anonymous private collections, this rare piece provides valuable insight into French politics and society at the turn of the 19th century. Its black-and-white composition adds an air of authenticity, transporting us back to witness this extraordinary moment firsthand. Stefano Bianchetti's meticulous work ensures that these historical events are immortalized through artistry and evoke curiosity about our past struggles for power and influence.
