Study for The Enrollment of the Volunteers of 1792” 1848 Thomas Couture Following the success of Couture's "Romans of the Decadence," the Second Republic government commissioned "The Enrollment of the Volunteers of 1792" for the Hall of Sessions of the National Assembly, aiming to associate the recent revolution of 1848 with the foundational revolutionary moment of over fifty years prior. The project was never completed though the unfinished canvas survives (Musée Départemental de l'Oise) along with many studies such as this. Although a figure who strikes this exact pose has not been identified in the composition as it exists today, the inscription in the artist's hand definitively connects it to the project. This carefully observed drawing of an upraised arm with its creased sleeve demonstrates an aspect of the artist's process in preparing a monumental painting: the study from life of models in various attitudes..

Mineur Constantin Meunier (Belgian, 1831-1905). Mineur, 1895. Lithograph on laid paper, Image: 13 9/16 x 20 11/16 in. (34.5 x 52.5 cm). Constantin Meunier made a specialty of depicting muscular industrial laborers in the late nineteenth century. He conceived of his subjects as integral members of society and infused them with a sense of grandeur and heroism. Produced during a time of unrest in the European labor community, his images were embraced by many writers and critics as revolutionary calls for reform. His work was understood differently in the United States in 1913-14, also a time of industrial strife, when his retrospective exhibition traveled across the country to great acclaim. Meuniers noble laborers were perceived as acquiescent, proud, and happy with their stations in life, as opposed to actual militant strikers. One American critic noted that his figures reveal “an invigorating joy in life, in labor,” offering “a lesson to the rebelling and dissatisfied.” European Art
