EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Proclamation of the country in danger 22 July 1792" takes us back to a pivotal moment in history. Created by Pierre-Gabriel Berthault during the late 18th century, this artwork captures the essence of a nation on the brink of turmoil. The scene unfolds with an array of military elements that evoke both awe and trepidation. A cavalry regiment charges forward, their horses galloping with power and determination. The soldiers, clad in their uniforms, embody bravery and loyalty as they ride into battle. Cannons stand tall in the background, symbolizing the might and force behind this historic proclamation. Amidst all this chaos, a river flows calmly through the landscape—a stark contrast to the fervor surrounding it. The presence of flags fluttering proudly above adds an air of patriotism to this tumultuous scene. As we gaze upon this engraving from Musee Carnavalet in Paris, France, we are transported back to a time when conscription was prevalent and war service was mandatory for many young men. The crowd gathered here represents not only those who were directly involved but also ordinary citizens who witnessed these events unfold before them. Berthault's masterful use of color brings life to every detail within this artwork—each stroke capturing emotions ranging from fear to hope. This print serves as a reminder that history is shaped by moments like these—moments when nations unite against adversity or face imminent danger head-on. In collaboration with Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can now appreciate and reflect upon this historical masterpiece—an enduring testament to courage amidst chaos.
