EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a pivotal moment in history through the skilled artistry of Alfred W. Elmore. This lithograph, featured in H. G. Wells' renowned work "The Outline of History" transports us back to the French Revolution. In this intense scene, we witness the aftermath of an audacious escape attempt by the French Royal family from their opulent residence at the Tuileries Palace. Disguised as servants while their loyal staff masquerade as nobles, they hoped to evade capture and flee to safety. However, fate had other plans for King Louis XVI and his entourage. As dawn breaks on that fateful day after their daring escapade, tension fills the air within these grand walls. The once regal interior now teems with an angry mob seeking vengeance against a monarchy steeped in privilege and excess. Elmore's monochromatic rendering masterfully conveys not only fear but also desperation etched onto Queen Marie Antoinette's face as she clings tightly to her husband's arm amidst chaos and uncertainty. The revolutionaries stand resolute before them—representatives of a burgeoning bourgeoisie determined to overthrow centuries-old aristocratic rule. This print serves as a haunting reminder of how power can crumble under societal pressure and how even palaces cannot protect those who have lost touch with their people's plight. It encapsulates both the terror felt by those fleeing for their lives and the revolutionary fervor that swept across
