La Justice veillant sur le repos du monde, 1827 by Jean-Pierre Franque (French, 1774–1860)
On this day in 1774-amid rumblings of discontent from below-#LouisXVI, 19, & his bride #MarieAntoinette, 18, became the reigning monarchs of #France. Anti-aristocracy passions, already simmering due to the nation's debt problems, only increased as their disastrous reign unfolded.
5/10は #ルイ16世 がフランス国王に即位した日(1774)。
祖父ルイ15世は度重なる戦争で財政危機に陥っており「我が亡き後に洪水よ来たれ」と生前口にしていたそう。
その崩御による即位に「私は何ひとつ教わっていないのに」と嘆いた19歳の新国王が財政難や社会不安に立ち向かうことになります…
Caspar David Friedrich (Sept 5, 1774-May 7, 1840, German)

"Lenore"(1774) is a poem by Gottfried August Bürger. It is characterised as being part of the 18th-century Gothic ballads,and although the character that returns from its grave in the poem is not considered to be a vampire, the poem has been very influential on vampire literature
Thomas Rowlandson's caricature, Death and the Antiquaries, 1816. A group of antiquaries cluster eagerly around the exhumed corpse of a king. The image was inspired by the opening of the tomb of Edward I in Westminster Abbey by the Society of Antiquaries in 1774.

John Reeves was born #OTD 1774. He was the East India Company’s Inspector of Teas in China for 19 years (1812-1831). He collected plant & animal specimens & comissioned watercolours of many species by Chinese artists. The Reeves pheasant and Reeves muntjac are named after him.
Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840) has made wonderful landscapes of people contemplating nature.
The Abbey in the Oakwood is one of them, though it could also have been a screenshot from a horror movie..

Thread: Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840) is considered the greatest German landscape artist of his time. A key Romantic painter he explored the metaphysical role of human & nature. He truly captured the sublime.
