EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historical illustration by Jacques Marie Gaston Onfray de Breville, also known as JOB. Taken from the book "Les epees de France" the image depicts Louis Philippe being driven away from the throne, holding Joseph Prudhommes Sabre. The sabre holds great significance for Louis Philippe, who proclaimed it to be the most beautiful day of his life. He vowed to use this weapon to defend his country's institutions and even fight against them if necessary. JOB, a pseudonym for Onfray de Breville, was a renowned French artist and illustrator during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This particular artwork showcases his talent in capturing historical events with intricate detail and artistic flair. The engraving portrays various elements such as military uniforms, badges, cockades, medals, and symbols of power that were significant during that era. Additionally, there are subtle references to botany and natural history through the presence of pears in the composition. This remarkable piece offers a glimpse into French history while showcasing JOB's mastery in creating detailed illustrations that combine artistry with storytelling. It serves as a testament to both the artist's skill and his ability to capture important moments in time through visual representation.
