EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Mirabeau (Honore Gabriel Riqueti, Count of Mirabeau, 1749-1791)" captures a momentous scene at the Champs Elysees. In this engraving by Moreau le Jeune, we witness the arrival of Mirabeau, adorned with the Genie de la liberte on his head carrying a banner that reads "La France libre". As he approaches J. J. Rousseau, he presents him with a charter constitution while Benjamin Franklin reaches out to place an oak wreath on his head. In the background, notable figures such as Fenelon, Montesquieu, Voltaire, and Mably come forward to greet Mirabeau. Their presence symbolizes their support for his efforts in shaping French society during this transformative period. Meanwhile, Demosthenes and Cicero engage in conversation on the second plane of the image. This artwork encapsulates an important historical moment when Mirabeau played a significant role in advocating for political change and constitutional reform in France. The composition beautifully portrays both admiration and respect from influential thinkers and philosophers who recognize Mirabeau's contributions. As Charon uses an oar to push his boat off from shore in the distance behind them alludes to the passage of time and perhaps signifies that this pivotal era is just beginning. This remarkable print serves as a visual testament to the intellectual exchange and collaboration among great minds during one of history's most crucial periods of societal transformation.
