EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Duke of Orleans During the Cholera Epidemic, c1830" captures a poignant moment in history. Painted by the talented artist Alfred Johannot, it depicts the Duke of Orleans visiting the sick at L Hotel-Dieu during the devastating cholera epidemic that struck France in 1832. In this somber scene, we see a desperate crowd gathered outside as poverty and illness grip the nation. The women depicted are particularly affected by this deadly disease, their faces reflecting both fear and hope for salvation from their suffering. The Duke of Orleans, dressed in his military uniform, stands among them with an air of compassion and determination to help his people. The painting serves as a powerful reminder of the harsh realities faced by ordinary citizens during times of epidemics and war. It portrays not only physical sickness but also highlights social disparities and challenges faced by those living in poverty-stricken conditions. Alfred Johannot's skillful use of oil paints brings depth and emotion to this historical moment. Through his artistry, he transports us back to 19th-century France where disease ravaged communities and tested human resilience. "The Duke of Orleans During the Cholera Epidemic" is more than just a work of art; it is a testament to humanity's ability to endure even in times of great hardship.
