EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the aftermath of a devastating explosion that occurred at the police station on Rue des Bons-Enfants in Paris, 1892. The artist behind this powerful image is Henri Meyer, who skillfully depicted the chaos and destruction caused by an anarchist named Emile Henry. On that fateful day of November 8th, Emile Henry planted a bomb at the Carmaux Mining Company's offices. However, his plan was foiled when authorities discovered and confiscated the explosive device. Unbeknownst to them, their attempt to neutralize the threat would tragically backfire. The bomb was transported to the nearby police station on Rue des Bons-Enfants for further investigation. But before they could defuse it safely, disaster struck as it detonated unexpectedly within those walls. Five brave police officers lost their lives in this horrifying incident. Henri Meyer's print from Le Petit Journal supplements provides us with a glimpse into this dark chapter of history. With vivid colors and meticulous attention to detail, he conveys both the violence unleashed by terrorism and its impact on innocent victims. This artwork serves as a haunting reminder of how political unrest can escalate into acts of extreme violence even within our own communities. It prompts reflection on societal tensions during France's nineteenth century while honoring those who sacrificed their lives in service to law and order.
