EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Vendemiaire (September/October), first month of the Republican Calendar" takes us back to a time when art was used to celebrate and personify the changing seasons. Engraved by Tresca in 1794, this coloured engraving beautifully captures the essence of autumn. In the center of the composition stands a graceful female figure, personifying Vendemiaire, with her flowing robes and delicate features. She holds a set of scales, symbolizing balance and justice as she presides over this bountiful season. A goat rests at her side, representing fertility and abundance. Surrounding Vendemiaire are lush vines heavy with grapes, reminding us that autumn is also synonymous with harvest time and viticulture. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every leaf and grape cluster meticulously rendered. The warm color palette chosen by Louis Lafitte further enhances the feeling of autumnal richness. Shades of gold, orange, and deep red dominate the scene, evoking images of falling leaves and crisp air. This print from Musee de la Ville de Paris transports us to an era where nature's cycles were celebrated through art. It serves as a reminder that even amidst societal changes such as adopting a new calendar system or political upheaval, there will always be beauty found in nature's rhythms - like those seen during September/October - waiting to be appreciated by all who take notice.
