"The States General: A Journey through Centuries of Political Power and Revolution" Step into the vibrant tapestry of history as we explore the significance of the States General, a pivotal institution that shaped nations and ignited revolutions. From Orleans in 1561 to The Hague in modern times, these captivating images offer glimpses into defining moments that have left an indelible mark on our collective memory. In "The States General at Orleans, 1561, " a vivid colour lithograph transports us back to a time when this assembly convened to discuss matters of utmost importance. Amidst ornate surroundings, influential figures debated policies that would shape the destiny of their land. Fast forward to 1670, where an oil-on-canvas portrait introduces us to Johan Maurits, Count of Nassau-Siegen. As founder of the Mauritshuis, his legacy echoes through centuries as a testament to his vision and patronage for art. However, not all chapters in this saga are painted with strokes of grandeur. In "The Corpses of the De Witt Brothers, " c. 1672-75, we confront a grim reality - political intrigue leading to tragedy. This haunting depiction serves as a reminder that power struggles can sometimes exact a heavy toll on those who dare challenge it. Shifting gears towards revolutionary fervor, we encounter "Deputy of the Third Estate" at the Estates General in 1789. Through lithography's lens in 1825 comes an image brimming with anticipation and hope for change during France's tumultuous revolution. Honore Gabriel Riqueti takes center stage next in "Revolution francaise. " His commanding presence before Monsieur de Henri Evrard captures Mirabeau's charisma as he navigates treacherous waters during one of history's most transformative periods –the French Revolution. Venturing beyond France’s borders brings us face-to-face with international gatherings such as "The Paris Exhibition.
