EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le serment du Jeu de paume" takes us back to the heart of 19th-century France during a time of great political upheaval. The image, part of a private collection, was originally created as an illustration for the Dictionnaire Populaire Illustre by Decembre-Alonnier around 1880. The scene depicted in this print is none other than the iconic Tennis Court Oath that took place on June 20,1789. This pivotal moment in history occurred during the French Revolution when members of the Third Estate gathered at the Jeu de Paume (tennis court) in Versailles to pledge their commitment to drafting a new constitution for France. The artist skillfully captures the intensity and determination on the faces of those present as they raise their hands and take an oath that would shape the course of French history. The detailed engravings bring life to this significant event, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in this crucial moment where speech and communication became powerful tools for change. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded not only of France's revolutionary past but also its enduring impact on Europe and beyond. It serves as a reminder that even within dictionaries and textbooks lies profound artistry capable of preserving our collective memory.
