EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in French history - the Celebration of the First National Federation on 14 July 1790. The image showcases King Louis XVI, surrounded by his family, as they take an oath on the constitution. This event took place on the Altar of the Fatherland in Champs-de-Mars, marking the first anniversary of the capture of the Bastille. In this drawing a la plume, created by Peter Johann Nepomuck Geiger in 1840 and sourced from "Historische Memorabilian des In-und Auslandes" by Anton Ziegler, we witness a significant gathering that symbolizes unity and progress during a time of great change. The king's presence alongside Queen Marie-Antoinette and their son Dauphin Louis XVII highlights their commitment to embracing constitutional reforms. The atmosphere is one of celebration and hope for a brighter future. As France commemorates its newfound freedom from tyranny, citizens gather around to witness this solemn moment where loyalty to the nation is reaffirmed. It serves as an important reminder that even those in positions of power are bound by laws meant to protect and serve all individuals within society. Preserved within a private collection today, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an era marked by revolutionary fervor and aspirations for liberty. Its historical significance cannot be overstated as it immortalizes an essential milestone in French history - one that continues to resonate with people worldwide who yearn for justice and equality.
