EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the haunting image of "The Dauphin in the Temple Prison". The young boy in the picture is Louis XVII, also known as Louis Charles, who was born in 1785 and tragically died at a tender age of ten or eleven. He held the title of Titular King of France from 1793 to 1795 but is more famously remembered as the Lost Dauphin. Engraved by Meyer-Heine after De La Charlerie, this historical illustration captures the somber atmosphere within the prison walls during one of France's most turbulent periods - the French Revolution. The horizontal composition emphasizes both his captivity and vulnerability. Louis XVII's story has become a popular legend over time, with many speculating about his fate and whether he truly perished or managed to escape. This print serves as a poignant reminder of his tragic life cut short amidst political turmoil. From "Histoire de la Revolution Francaise" by Louis Blanc, this artwork offers viewers a glimpse into an era marked by revolution and upheaval. It invites us to reflect on history's impact on individuals like Louis XVII while reminding us that even lost legends can leave an indelible mark on our collective memory.
