EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Flight to Varennes of Louis XVI and his family during the French Revolution. On June 22, 1791, the royal family attempted to flee France in secret, only to be detected at an inn in Varennes. The events that unfolded were nothing short of dramatic as they were brought back ignominiously to Paris.
The image is filled with tension and emotion as we witness the failed escape attempt of the monarch and his loved ones. The expressions on their faces tell a story of fear, desperation, and ultimately defeat. It serves as a powerful reminder of the turbulent times during the revolution when even those in power were not safe from its consequences.
Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly captured this historical moment, allowing us to delve into the past and witness firsthand one of the most significant events of that era. The attention to detail and historical accuracy in this print make it a valuable piece for anyone interested in French history or revolutionary movements.
Overall, this print is not just a visual representation but also a window into a critical chapter in world history that continues to intrigue and fascinate us today.
