EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Third Estate representatives locked out of the assembly room at Hotel des Menus-Plaisirs in Versailles on 23 June 1789. The image, created by Lucien Etienne, Marquis de Dreux-Breze in 1874, is now housed in the esteemed Collection of Musee de l'Histoire de France at Chateau de Versailles. The scene depicted here transports us back to the French Revolution, a time of great social upheaval and political transformation. As we gaze upon this oil on canvas masterpiece, we witness the frustration and determination etched onto the faces of these representatives who were denied entry into their own assembly room. The composition exudes realism as it vividly portrays historical figures such as Mirabeau and Melingue amidst a sea of impassioned individuals fighting for their rights. This powerful visual narrative serves as a reminder of the struggle for democracy that unfolded during this tumultuous period. Through this photograph's lens, we are transported to July 1789 when tensions ran high and revolution was brewing. It encapsulates an important chapter not only in French history but also world history. The significance of this event reverberates through time, reminding us of our collective journey towards freedom and equality. As we reflect upon this poignant image from Dreux-Breze's collection, let it serve as a testament to human resilience and our unwavering pursuit for justice throughout the ages.
