EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a mesmerizing oil on canvas artwork titled "The Hope of Happiness Dedicated to the Nation". Painted by Dubois in 1812, this masterpiece is housed in the Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet, located in the heart of Paris, France. In this painting, we witness an extraordinary scene that symbolizes hope and enlightenment during a tumultuous period. The central figure is Louis XVI, the king of France and Navarre. He is guided by Bonte or Goodness itself as he navigates through treacherous waters on a rowing boat. This depiction reflects his desire for happiness not only for himself but also for his nation. Beside him stands Jacques Necker, a prominent politician known for his commitment to truth and transparency. Holding a mirror that illuminates paintings representing different eras or "three times". Necker represents enlightenment through knowledge and understanding. The composition is rich with symbolism; it showcases an angelic figure battling against demonic forces while aristocracy watches from above. The fleur-de-lis emblem further emphasizes French royalty's presence throughout history. Dubois' masterful use of color and detail brings this allegorical piece to life. It serves as both a historical document capturing significant figures during the French Revolution
