Summary "L'Illustration, No. 0029, 16 Septembre 1843" by Various is a historical journal published in the early 19th century. This periodical features articles, illustrations, and commentary on contemporary events, cultural phenomena, and societal issues, offering a snapshot of life during that time. The initial focus revolves around the inauguration of statues commemorating notable figures like King René and Abbé de l'Épée, interspersed with reflections on hunting culture and a royal visit by Queen Victoria to France. The opening portion presents a series of articles beginning with the inauguration of a statue honoring King René in Angers, detailing his life as a medieval prince and patron of the arts. Following this, the text highlights the statue of Abbé de l'Épée, an educator for the deaf, elaborating on his contributions to their education and the subsequent ceremony of his statue's unveiling in Versailles. Additionally, the journal features vivid images of the ceremonial aspects of these inaugurations, the cultural backdrop of hunting season with humorous commentary on the hunting practices of various social classes, and culminates in a mention of Queen Victoria’s visit to France, illustrating both historical events and the societal context of the day.
