EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, depicting the arrest of Georges Cadoudal, a prominent French royalist conspirator. The scene unfolds in the vibrant Latin Quarter of Paris on 9th March 1804. As the authorities close in on Cadoudal, tension fills the air. In an act of desperation and defiance, he fatally shoots one of the arresting officers. The wood engraving, created during the late 19th century by an artist named Horace de Callias, beautifully brings this dramatic event to life. Every detail is meticulously etched into the medium, showcasing both artistic skill and historical accuracy. Cadoudal's character shines through as he sits atop his horse with determination and courage. His face reveals a mix of fearlessness and resolve as he faces off against his pursuers. The chaos surrounding him is palpable - police officers scramble to apprehend him while a dog barks furiously nearby. The image also offers glimpses into everyday life during that era: carriages pass by in haste, transporting people unaware of the unfolding drama before them. This print from Granger Art on Demand serves as a powerful reminder of Cadoudal's role as a fervent supporter of monarchy amidst political turmoil in France at that time. It encapsulates not only his daring escape attempts but also showcases how art can immortalize historical moments for generations to come
