Active selection in cart:
Descente dans les ateliers de la liberte de la presse. Print shows on the left, King Louis-Philippe in a right side profile, whiskers obscuring his face, with his hand over the mouth of a female printer, representing freedom of the press, and showing on the far left, Jean-Charles Persil holding a large pair of scissors, the typical device identifying a censor. Other government officials attempt to overturn the press and confront other printers near a press in the background. Hanging from wires above are issues of "La Caricature" and "Droits de L'Homme". Date 1832?.
