EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a dramatic moment in history - the arrest of a man on board a Paris bus after he fired shots at a passing troop of cavalry. The color lithograph, created by Carrey in the early 1900s, showcases the chaotic scene with vivid detail. In this illustration for Le Petit Parisien, dated 19 May 1907, we witness the aftermath of an alarming act of violence. French police officers and soldiers can be seen surrounding the bus as they apprehend the criminal responsible for endangering public safety. The image highlights both the bravery and swift response of law enforcement in protecting their citizens. The juxtaposition between modern transportation and traditional horseback riding adds intrigue to this historical event. It serves as a reminder that even amidst technological advancements, crime still persists and requires vigilant action from authorities. This arresting image not only documents an important moment in French history but also reflects broader themes such as social order, law enforcement, and public safety. It is a testament to how art can capture significant events while simultaneously evoking emotions and sparking conversations about societal issues. As we observe this powerful photograph print from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our past through visual representations like these – allowing us to learn from history while appreciating its artistic value.
