EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the portrait of Charlotte Corday, a prominent figure in French history. Painted by Stefano Bianchetti in the 19th century, this engraving captures the essence of Corday's enigmatic personality. Charlotte Corday was born in 1768 and met her tragic fate at just 25 years old in 1793. She is famously known for assassinating Jean-Paul Marat, a radical journalist and politician during the French Revolution. This act was seen as an attempt to bring about political change and end the violence that had consumed France at that time. In this portrait, Corday's piercing gaze reflects her determination and conviction. The artist skillfully portrays her delicate features with intricate details, giving us a glimpse into her inner strength amidst turbulent times. The image is taken from "L'Histoire de France" by Henri Martin, adding historical significance to this artwork. It serves as a reminder of the pivotal role played by women like Charlotte Corday during one of the most tumultuous periods in French history. Displayed here as part of a private collection, this print allows us to appreciate both its artistic merit and its historical context. It stands as a testament to the power of art in capturing moments that shape our understanding of past events.
