EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the arrival of the royal family, Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, in Paris during the French Revolution. Taken on 5th October 1789, this engraving by the French School from the 18th century provides a glimpse into a turbulent era. The image showcases the grandeur and opulence associated with royalty as they make their way through the streets of Paris. The ornate carriage carrying Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette is surrounded by an entourage of guards and courtiers, emphasizing their status as monarchs. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation and uncertainty, reflecting the mounting tensions that would eventually lead to drastic changes in France's political landscape. Marie Antoinette, known for her lavish lifestyle and infamous reputation, stands out in her elegant attire adorned with intricate details. Her presence exudes both regality and vulnerability amidst a populace yearning for change. As we gaze upon this black-and-white photograph, we are transported back to a time when revolution was brewing within these very streets. It serves as a reminder of how power can be challenged by those seeking equality and justice. Leonard de Selva's skillful capture allows us to witness this historic event firsthand. This print not only preserves an important moment but also invites us to reflect on its significance within the broader context of French history.
