EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a significant moment in history, depicting the resignation of Jean-Baptiste-Joseph Gobel from his Episcopal office in 1793. Gobel, a prominent French ecclesiastic and politician, served as the Archbishop of Paris during a tumultuous period marked by the French Revolution. Engraved by Launy Marchand after Renaud, this black and white illustration is taken from "Histoire De La Revolution Francaise" by Louis Blanc. In this horizontal scene, we witness Gobel's decision to step down from his position amidst the revolutionary fervor sweeping through France in the late 18th century. The image portrays an atmosphere of tension and uncertainty as political upheaval clashes with religious authority. Gobel's resignation serves as a symbol of the changing times and shifting power dynamics during this era. As an archbishop deeply involved in politics, he faced immense pressure to align himself with revolutionary ideals or risk losing influence altogether. This historical print offers viewers a glimpse into one man's struggle to navigate conflicting loyalties between church and state during a time when traditional institutions were being challenged. It invites us to reflect on the complex relationship between religion and politics that continues to shape societies today.
