EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from the 19th century depicts a pivotal moment in history - the storming of the Bastille during the French Revolution on July 14,1789. The image showcases the intensity and chaos that engulfed Paris on that fateful day. The scene is set in an exterior street of the city, where a rebellious army of Parisians has gathered to launch their attack on this symbol of royal authority and oppression. Troops can be seen charging forward with determination, while people from all walks of life join forces to fight for their freedom. The artist's intricate engraving technique brings to life every detail: crumbling walls, smoke billowing from cannons, and brave individuals engaging in battle. This print serves as a testament to both the violence and resilience exhibited by those who fought against tyranny. As we commemorate Bastille Day each year, this historical event continues to remind us of the power that lies within ordinary citizens when they unite for a common cause. It stands as an enduring symbol of revolution and liberation. Displayed proudly in any space, this Granger Collection print captures not only a significant moment but also pays homage to artistry preserved through time.
