EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "M Grevy, October 1870" showcases an engraving by the English School from the 19th century. The image, part of a private collection, depicts M Grevy during a significant period in history - the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 to 1871. The engraving was originally created as an illustration for Cassells History of the War between France and Germany, published around 1880. This particular version has been digitally cleaned to enhance its clarity and detail. The Franco-Prussian War was a conflict that pitted France against Prussia (Germany) and had far-reaching consequences for Europe. It marked the rise of German power under Otto von Bismarck's leadership and ultimately led to the unification of Germany. In this image, M Grevy is portrayed amidst a backdrop of war-torn landscapes and military symbolism. His presence represents not only France but also European unity in times of turmoil. The French culture is evident through his attire, while references to Germanic heritage highlight the clash between these two nations. Through this photo print, we are reminded of the historical significance surrounding this momentous event in European history. It serves as a visual testament to both the destructive nature of war and its impact on shaping nations' destinies.
