EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history, transporting us back to July 16,1789. King Louis XVI of France is depicted on his way to the town hall to receive the cocarde, accompanied by his cortege. As they pass through the iconic Pont neuf bridge, citizens can be seen flourishing a sculpture of Henry IV. The image exudes an air of tension and anticipation as it freezes this pivotal moment during the French Revolution. The citizens' act of brandishing the sculpture symbolizes their defiance against monarchy and their desire for change. It serves as a powerful visual representation of the revolutionary spirit that swept across France during this time. Hermann Vogel's illustration from 1907 beautifully captures the essence of this historical event. The fine details and intricate lines bring life to each figure present in the scene, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in this transformative period. This particular print is part of a private collection, adding an element of exclusivity and rarity to its appeal. It serves as a reminder not only of France's tumultuous past but also showcases Vogel's artistic talent in capturing such important moments with precision and emotion. Overall, this photograph provides us with a glimpse into one specific instance during the French Revolution when ordinary citizens boldly expressed their discontent towards monarchy – an image that continues to resonate with audiences today.
