EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a revolutionary plate with a monarchist motif, featuring the iconic lily flower symbol and the inscription "Long live the king". Dated back to 1790 in Nevers, France, this exquisite piece is housed in the prestigious Frederic Blandin Museum. The plate represents an intriguing intersection of history and artistry. During the tumultuous times of the French Revolution in 1789, when calls for democracy and equality were echoing throughout the nation, this plate boldly expresses allegiance to monarchy. It stands as a testament to the deep-rooted royalist movement that persisted amidst revolutionary fervor. Crafted by an anonymous French artist from the 18th century, every delicate brushstroke on this ceramic masterpiece tells a story. The elegant lily motif reflects both regal elegance and national identity – a symbol closely associated with French royalty for centuries. As we gaze upon this remarkable artifact today, it serves as a reminder of how political ideologies clashed during one of history's most transformative periods. It invites us to contemplate how even within moments of radical change, remnants of tradition can endure. Preserved meticulously at Musee Municipal Frederic Blandin in Nevers, France, this photograph captures not only an exceptional work of art but also encapsulates our fascination with historical relics that continue to shape our understanding of past events.
