Les damnés de la Commune #3

The third and final volume of Raphaël Meyssan's Les damnés de la Commune closes with "Les orphelins de l'histoire" — a title that carries real historical weight. The cover presents a striking engraving-style image of a determined woman, staff in hand, striding forward with a child close behind her, rendered in bold ink work by F. S. W. Palhem that feels genuinely rooted in the visual language of 19th-century illustration. Published by Delcourt in 2019, this volume promises a fitting conclusion to a series that has approached the Paris Commune with both artistic ambition and human empathy.
