EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View of the mountain elevated at the field of Reunion. 20 prairial year II (8/06/1794)" takes us back to a significant moment in French history. The image captures an anonymous engraving from 1794, during the Fete of the Supreme Being, held in Paris. The scene depicts a crowd gathered at the field of Reunion, with a majestic mountain towering in the background. The atmosphere is filled with patriotism and excitement as people come together to celebrate their republic. This historical event marked a turning point in France's journey towards freedom and equality. The engraving itself showcases remarkable detail and craftsmanship, reflecting the artistic style prevalent during the 18th century. It serves as a testament to both French culture and colonialism at that time. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to an era where unity and national pride were paramount. It reminds us of our shared history and how far we have come since then. Displayed at Musee Carnavalet in Paris, this print offers us a glimpse into an important chapter of French heritage. Its presence evokes curiosity about those who attended this grand celebration on Reunion Island over two centuries ago. Through its powerful imagery, this artwork invites us to reflect on our own values as citizens while appreciating the rich tapestry that makes up our collective past.
