This 1791 etching by Claude Niquet titled "Verzamelde menigte op de Pont Neuf in Parijs" depicts a scene of the Parisian populace gathered on the Pont Neuf bridge. The print, measuring 264 mm high and 331 mm wide, captures the chaotic energy of the crowd, possibly during an event or a demonstration. The artist's use of fine lines and hatching creates a sense of depth and texture, bringing the historical moment to life. The print is a valuable document of Parisian life during a pivotal period in French history.
