The Tragedy of Ivry sur Seine - A Glimpse into the Dark World of French Anarchism
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This haunting print captures a pivotal moment in history, depicting the aftermath of a shocking event that shook France to its core. The image showcases an engraving from "Le Petite Journal" dated May 5th, 1912, immortalizing the tragic events that unfolded on April 24th in Ivry-sur-Seine. In this chilling scene, we witness the aftermath of an anarchist attack led by Jules Bonnot (1876-1912), who mercilessly killed Louis Jouin, deputy chief of security, and injured Inspector Colmar. The chaos erupted when Jouin instructed his team to arrest Bonnot's gang and search the home of an anarchist sympathizer. As fate would have it, Jouin found himself face-to-face with Bonnot within one of their hideouts. In a desperate bid for survival, Bonnot pulled out his gun and fatally shot Jouin before managing to escape. However, his freedom was short-lived as a vigilant pharmacist recognized him and promptly alerted the authorities. This print serves as a somber reminder of the dangers lurking within society during this tumultuous period. It offers us insight into the violent clash between order and rebellion that characterized early 20th-century France. Preserved in anonymity but not forgotten through time, this piece is part of a private collection curated by Stefano Bianchetti—a poignant testament to our collective history and humanity's eternal struggle for justice and peace.
