EDITORS COMMENTS
The Triumph of Voltaire, captured in this stunning photo print, transports us back to the historic moment of 11th July 1791. Engraved by the talented Pierre Gabriel Berthault, this image beautifully depicts the homage paid to François-Marie Arouet, famously known as Voltaire. The scene unfolds with a grand procession led by a jubilant crowd marching alongside soldiers. This funerary cortege symbolizes the immense impact and influence that Voltaire had on French society during his lifetime. As one of the greatest Enlightenment thinkers and writers, he championed reason, tolerance, and freedom of speech. The solemnity of the occasion is palpable as we witness this remarkable tribute to an intellectual giant. The photograph allows us to feel immersed in history as we imagine ourselves among those who gathered to honor Voltaire's legacy. Displayed at Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet in France, this artwork serves as a reminder of Voltaire's lasting significance. It reminds us that even after his passing in 1778, his ideas continue to shape our understanding of human rights and social progress. This print captures not only a historical event but also encapsulates the enduring power of ideas. It invites contemplation about how individuals can leave an indelible mark on society long after they are gone.
