EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a significant moment in history during the War of 1870 - a legislative election held during the armistice in February 1871. The image depicts an election meeting at the famous Cabaret des Folies Bergeres in Paris, where candidates for the National Assembly are being proclaimed. This engraving, originally published in "Le Monde Illustre" on February 11th, 1871, offers a glimpse into this crucial period. In this black and white depiction by Stefano Bianchetti, we see a public assembly filled with people eager to participate in shaping their nation's future. The atmosphere is palpable as politicians and citizens gather together to discuss and decide on their representatives for the National Assembly. The Cabaret des Folies Bergeres serves as an unconventional venue for such an important event, highlighting both its historical significance and cultural relevance. This image not only showcases French history but also reflects the spirit of democracy and civic engagement that prevailed during this time. It reminds us of how elections have long been vital moments for societies to express their collective voice and exercise their democratic rights. Stefano Bianchetti's skillful engraving transports us back to that pivotal moment when France was emerging from war towards rebuilding itself through political processes. It stands as a testament to the resilience and determination of a nation striving for progress amidst challenging circumstances.
