EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic moment in French history, depicting Robert Francois Damiens, also known as Robert-Francois Damier. Born in 1715 and tragically executed in 1757, Damiens forever etched his name into the annals of infamy by stabbing Louis XV with a knife on January 5th, 1757 at Versailles. The engraving itself was created in 1863 by Dupray de La Maherie and is featured prominently in "Le Livre Rouge - Histoire De L'échafaud en France". This remarkable piece now resides within a private collection belonging to an anonymous individual who recognizes its historical significance. Stefano Bianchetti has expertly captured this engraving through his lens, bringing forth the intensity and emotion that radiates from Damiens' portrait. The colors chosen add depth and vibrancy to the image while maintaining its authenticity. As we gaze upon this striking depiction of a pivotal event during the reign of Louis XV, we are reminded of the power struggles that plagued France during the turbulent eighteenth century. Through artistry and skillful preservation, A© Stefano Bianchetti ensures that this significant moment remains immortalized for generations to come.
