EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "French Revolution (1789): La Fayette 'This Roundel will go around the world', 1896" captures a pivotal moment in history. In this illustration by Job, we see Gilbert du Motier de La Fayette, the head of the National Guard during the French Revolution. It was July 1789 when he inaugurated the tricolor and declared, "This Roundel will go around the world". La Fayette's words were filled with hope and determination as he believed that the ideals of liberty, equality, and fraternity would spread beyond France's borders. This powerful statement became symbolic of not only the revolution but also its potential impact on other nations. Job's illustration beautifully depicts La Fayette standing tall with his hand raised towards a vibrant tricolor flag. The colors represent different aspects of revolutionary values - blue for freedom, white for equality, and red for brotherhood. The image is rich in historical significance as it showcases an important figure who played a crucial role in shaping France's destiny during this turbulent period. La Fayette's commitment to these principles inspired generations to come and left an indelible mark on history. Through this print from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of both the courage displayed by individuals like La Fayette and their belief that their revolutionary ideas could transcend boundaries. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and uncertainty, there is always room for hope and progress.
