EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Installation of the Council of State at the Palais du Petit Luxembourg on 25 December 1799" takes us back to a significant moment in French history. Created by Louis Charles Auguste Couder, this print captures the solemnity and grandeur of an important political event. In the image, we see three consuls - Bonaparte, Cambaceres, and Lebrun - standing tall as they receive the oaths of the presidents. The scene is filled with dignitaries and officials who have gathered at the Palais du Petit Luxembourg to witness this historic occasion. Each figure exudes a sense of importance and authority as they participate in this crucial ceremony. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every facial expression and gesture tells a story. The composition skillfully balances light and shadow, adding depth to each character portrayed. It is evident that Couder was not only skilled in his craft but also deeply knowledgeable about French politics during this period. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are transported back to a time when France was undergoing significant changes under Napoleon Bonaparte's leadership. This artwork serves as a visual testament to an era marked by political transformation and ambition. Stefano Bianchetti has expertly captured historical significance through his reproduction of Couder's work. This print stands as both a beautiful piece of artistry and an invaluable glimpse into one pivotal moment in French history.
