Description
This is a reproduction of "The Storming of the Bastille" by Jean-Pierre Houël of 1789. This enhanced watercolor captures the pivotal event marking the beginning of the French Revolution on July 14, 1789. In the middle of the painting is shown the arrest of Bernard Rene Jourdan, the marquis de Launay at about 1:30 in the afternoon. The moment was captured by Jean-Pierre Houël who was then fifty-four years old. He had been drawing and painting since 1750 and had held a position in the French Academy in Rome. He traveled in Italy and published travel books in the 1780's. The original watercolor is 40.5 cm wide and 37.8 cm high.
