EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, created by the renowned artist Jacques Louis David in 1793, depicts Philippe-Francois-Joseph Le Bas (1764-1794), a prominent figure during the tumultuous era of the French Revolution. The artwork showcases Le Bas's dignified and resolute profile, capturing his strong presence and unwavering commitment to his political ideals. Le Bas is depicted wearing a hat adorned with a cockade, symbolizing his allegiance to the revolutionary cause. As a lawyer and deputy, he played an active role in shaping the course of history during this transformative period. His piercing gaze reflects both determination and intelligence, hinting at his deep understanding of the complex political landscape. The use of pen, brush, and Indian ink on paper adds depth and texture to this striking portrayal. The meticulous attention to detail highlights David's mastery as an artist while also emphasizing Le Bas's importance within society. This rare print from a private collection allows us to glimpse into the life of one man who stood at the forefront of change during one of France's most significant periods. It serves as a testament to both Le Bas's personal courage and conviction as well as David's ability to capture not only physical likeness but also inner strength through art.
