EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history during the French Revolution. The image depicts Pierre Victor de Besenval de Brunstatt, Baron de Besenval, as he is led to Brie Comte Robert on August 10,1789. As a military commander of the Ale de France and the garrison of Paris, Besenval played a crucial role in restoring order to the faubourg Saint-Antoine after the capture of the Bastille. The engraving by Berthaut after Prior beautifully portrays this significant figure who left Paris following the fall of Bastille but was later recognized near Provins and subsequently arrested and imprisoned at Brie-Comte-Robert. This historical artwork can be found in the Library of the Institute of History of Revolution in Paris. Besenval's actions during this tumultuous period exemplify his dedication to maintaining stability amidst chaos. His leadership skills and strategic decisions were instrumental in reestablishing control over rebellious areas within Paris. This print serves as a reminder of both Besenval's contributions and the larger context surrounding one of history's most transformative events. It allows us to reflect upon an era marked by revolution, upheaval, and profound societal change that continues to shape our understanding today.
