French Revolution - Taking the Bastille - A Glimpse into a Revolutionary Era
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "French Revolution - Taking the Bastille" takes us back in time to one of history's most significant events. The image captures the chaos and fervor that engulfed Paris on July 14,1789, as revolutionaries stormed the infamous Bastille prison. The artist behind this masterpiece is Tancredi Scarpelli (1866-1937), whose attention to detail and historical accuracy bring this pivotal moment to life. This particular print is part of a private collection and was originally created as an illustration for Paolo Lorenzini's book "Storia de Costume dei Popoli" in 1934. In this scene, we witness a sea of diverse individuals clad in various costumes representing different social classes. Their determination and unity are palpable as they rally together against oppression. The tricolore flag proudly waves above them, symbolizing their fight for liberty, equality, and fraternity. Through this photograph, we gain insight into not only the French Revolution but also its impact on society at large. It serves as a powerful reminder of how ordinary people can rise up against tyranny when pushed beyond their limits. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us reflect on the sacrifices made by those who fought for freedom during this tumultuous period in history. May it inspire us to cherish our own liberties while striving for justice
