The Arrival of Louis XVI in Front of the Louvre, 17th July 1789
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in history as King Louis XVI arrives at the Louvre amidst a tumultuous period during the French Revolution. Painted by Jean-Pierre Houel, this watercolor and gouache masterpiece measures 38.5x50.5 cm and is housed in the Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet. The scene depicts an extraordinary sight - armed citizens escorting their king through a sea of people gathered outside the iconic Louvre. The date is significant; it follows the storming of the Bastille just days earlier, marking a turning point in France's fight for liberty and equality. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to that fateful day when revolutionaries filled with hope and anger surrounded Louis XVI's carriage. The crowd represents a diverse mix of individuals from all walks of life united by their desire for change. Houel masterfully captures both tension and curiosity on every face within this vibrant tableau. We can almost hear the murmurs rising from those who witnessed this historic event firsthand - whispers filled with anticipation, uncertainty, and perhaps even fear. This image serves as a powerful reminder of how ordinary citizens can rise up against oppressive regimes to demand justice and freedom. It immortalizes an unforgettable moment that forever altered not only France but also shaped future revolutions around the world.
