This print titled "Farewell to Louis 16,1793.1794-1804" takes us back in time to a significant moment in history - the French Revolution. The engraving, created by Reiner Vinkeles (1741-1816), captures the poignant farewell of Louis XVI to his family on January 20th, 1793. As we gaze at this historic image, we are transported to that fateful day when the king bid his loved ones goodbye before facing an uncertain fate. The scene is filled with emotion and tension as family members embrace one another amidst a backdrop of turmoil and political unrest. Vinkeles' meticulous craftsmanship brings every detail to life - from the expressions on their faces to the intricate clothing worn during that era.
