EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Ferdinand Lassalle, a prominent figure in 19th century Germany. The portrait showcases his strong presence and determination, reflecting his role as a jurist and socialist political activist. Born in 1825, Lassalle played an active part in the French Revolution of 1848, fueling his passion for social change and equality. In 1862, he became the first President of the Universal German Workmens Union, further solidifying his commitment to advocating for workers' rights. Tragically, Lassalle's life was cut short when he met his untimely demise in a fatal duel in 1864. Despite this unfortunate end to his journey, Lassalle's legacy lives on as an influential statesman who fought tirelessly for justice. The engraving featured here is from "The World's History: A Survey of Man's Record" published by Dr HF Helmolt in London during 1903. This historical piece serves as a testament to Lasalle's impact on German politics and society during the turbulent times of revolution. As we gaze upon this image today, we are reminded of Lasalle's unwavering dedication to social democracy and revolutionary ideals that continue to shape our understanding of history.
