Battle at Soufflot barricades ( Revolution of 1848)


 
" Battle at Soufflot barricades." File:Horace Vernet-Barricade rue Soufflot.jpg. Web. 22 Mar 2011.                                                                                                                                  This painting illustrates the violent upheavals that occurred daily in the streets of Paris in the year of 184.Personally I Paris Vernet for his realistic partial of throws chaotic events. But I usually don,t like so called "political" art. Its always so biased and ignores the strife of the lower class and peasants which all ways suffer the most ! Thats why I usely say away from political or recent events. At the time of the revolution i was to worried about the safety of my self , wife, and my three children !
