EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a masterpiece of Neoclassical sculpture, the "Depart of 1792. La Marseillaise" group by Francois Rude, located on the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, France. Dating back to the 19th century, between 1806 and 1836, this sculptural masterpiece personifies the spirit of the French First Republic during the pivotal 10 August uprising. The central figure is the personification of Liberty, depicted as a winged woman, watching over the volunteers of the First French Republic as they depart for battle. Above them, the iconic Marseillaise hymn is embodied, symbolizing the revolutionary fervor and unity that fueled the French Revolution. The Arc de Triomphe, a neoclassical monument built to honor the soldiers of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars, serves as the perfect backdrop for this powerful and evocative sculpture. The intricate details and dynamic poses of the figures in the group capture the essence of the modern age and the spirit of the neoclassic movement, which emphasized the beauty and grandeur of ancient Greek and Roman art. This print, a testament to the rich history and artistic heritage of Europe, offers a glimpse into the past and the enduring legacy of the French Revolution. The Depart of 1792. La Marseillaise group remains a cherished symbol of freedom, unity, and the indomitable spirit of the French people.
