EDITORS COMMENTS
This satirical engraving, titled 'The First and Third Estates,' offers a witty commentary on the tumultuous events of the French Revolution (1789-1799). The image, created in the late 18th century, captures the irony of the situation between the three estates in the realm of France. The First Estate, represented by the clergy, is depicted as a well-fed, elegantly dressed figure, reclining on a pile of gold coins and jewels. The Second Estate, the nobility, is shown as a proud, armed man, standing with a sword and a crown, seemingly oblivious to the suffering of the common people. In stark contrast, the Third Estate, the commoners, is portrayed as a starving, barefoot man, chained to a barrel, with a mortar and pestle in hand, symbolizing their role as the laborers of the society. The caption 'That will not last forever' adds to the irony of the situation, as the privileged First and Second Estates are unaware of the impending upheaval that will soon bring about their downfall. The colored print, with its intricate details and vivid hues, is a testament to the artistic skill of the time and serves as a reminder of the European history that shaped the modern world. The French Revolution, marked by the collapse of the Bourbon monarchy and the rise of radical political ideologies, brought about significant social and political changes in France and Europe. This satirical engraving offers a unique perspective on the events leading up to this transformative period, highlighting the stark contrasts between the classes and the eventual shift in power.
