EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - a polling station during the late 19th century in Brittany, France. The image, beautifully rendered through a colour lithograph by Gabriel Gostiaux (E. Phosty), transports us back to an era when universal suffrage was being fought for and celebrated. The scene depicts the essence of democracy as citizens exercise their right to vote. The people of Brittany, dressed in traditional Breton attire, gather at this bustling polling station with anticipation and determination etched on their faces. Each individual represents a voice that contributes to shaping the future of their nation. The composition is rich with details that reflect the time period - from the architectural elements of the building to the clothing styles worn by both men and women. Through this lens, we gain insight into not only political participation but also cultural identity. Leonard de Selva's masterful reproduction preserves every nuance and hue of Gostiaux's original artwork, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance even more deeply. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how far society has come in terms of democratic rights while acknowledging that there is still progress to be made. In capturing this pivotal moment in French history, "Universal Suffrage: Polling Station in Brittany" serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a testament to human resilience and progress towards equality.
