EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Louis Charles Auguste Couder's "Study for the Tennis Court Oath" a remarkable piece of art that captures a pivotal moment in history. Created with red chalk on paper and black lead on tracing paper, this study is part of a private collection. The artwork depicts the iconic scene known as the Tennis Court Oath, where members of the French Third Estate gathered in Versailles on June 20th, 1789. In this powerful image, men are seen standing together, their hands raised as they take an oath to create a new constitution for France. The intensity and determination emanating from their faces are palpable. Couder's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his sanguine drawing technique. The use of black lead on tracing paper adds depth and dimension to the composition, further enhancing its visual impact. The final painting based on this study can be found at the Musee de la Revolution Francaise in Vizille. However, this particular print allows us to appreciate Couder's artistic process and skillful execution up close. As we gaze upon this historic moment frozen in time through Couder's masterful hand, we cannot help but feel inspired by these brave individuals who stood united against oppression and fought for change. Their commitment to creating a better future resonates even today and reminds us of the power that lies within collective action.
