EDITORS COMMENTS
The Battle of Hernani at the Comedie Francaise on the 25th February 1830 captures a pivotal moment in theatrical history. Painted by Paul Albert Besnard in 1909, this oil on canvas print depicts the intense clash between classicism and romanticism that unfolded on stage. At the center of the composition, we see actors engaged in a heated argument, symbolizing the ideological struggle between traditionalists and proponents of new artistic movements. The play being performed is Victor Hugo's 'La Bataille d'Hernani ou L'Honneur Castillan, ' which served as a battleground for these opposing forces. The audience's reaction is divided; some applaud passionately while others express their disapproval with hisses and jeers. A bunch of flowers thrown onto the stage adds to the chaos, representing both adoration and disdain from different factions within society. This historic performance took place just months before the July Revolution of 1830, adding an extra layer of tension to an already charged atmosphere. The painting beautifully captures this sense of drama through its vibrant colors and dynamic composition. Besnard's work serves as a testament to not only this particular event but also to the power of art itself. It reminds us that throughout history, theater has often been at the forefront of societal change and cultural revolutions.
