EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "FRANCE: CLASSES, c1822" offers a glimpse into the intricate social structure of 19th-century France. The stencil-colored wood engraving, dating back to 1822-8, showcases the four distinct classes that defined French society at the time. In this image, we see a visual representation of the church, military, peasant, and law classes. Each class is depicted with meticulous detail and symbolism. The clergy is represented by figures adorned in religious robes and mitres, symbolizing their spiritual authority within society. The military class stands tall in their uniforms with rifles and bayonets at hand, embodying strength and defense. Contrasting these powerful images are the humble peasants carrying baskets filled with produce or tools of labor. They represent the backbone of society - hardworking individuals who sustain everyday life through their agricultural efforts. Lastly, we observe members of the law class dressed in formal attire reminiscent of early legal professionals. Their presence signifies order and justice within French society during this era. Published by Jean-Charles Pellerin at Epinal in France as part of his Images d'Epinal collection; this artwork captures not only an important historical moment but also reflects Pellerin's dedication to preserving cultural heritage through his engravings. The Granger Collection has beautifully preserved this piece from its Carousel Collection for art enthusiasts to appreciate and delve into France's complex social fabric during the early 19th century.
