A striking woodcut portrait of the French anarchist Ravachol by Charles Maurin, capturing the intensity of the man and the social tensions of the late 19th century.
This woodcut portrait by Charles Maurin (1856-1914) depicts Ravachol, the French anarchist whose real name was François Claudius Koënigstein. Ravachol was known for his acts of terrorism in Paris during the early 1890s, including bombings and grave desecration. He was eventually arrested and executed in 1892, becoming a martyr figure for the anarchist movement. Maurin's portrait captures Ravachol's intense gaze and determined expression. The stark black-and-white medium adds to the image's dramatic effect. The composition places Ravachol against a backdrop of clouds, a rising sun, and what appears to be a field of wheat or tall grass, all framed by a dark, architectural structure. The artist's initials, 'CM', are visible in the lower left corner. The portrait is a striking example of fin-de-siècle printmaking and reflects the social and political tensions of the time. Maurin, a French artist associated with Symbolism, often explored themes of social commentary and the human condition in his work.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
