Recently learned that the more well-known illustration of the French edition of Capital (first image) was not the only one, and that there were at least two others that were full of republican iconography (second and third image)

Even stranger is that in the French, Marx changed it to "Argus" i.e. a hundred-eyed giant rather than a one-eyed giant

I'm not sure about the 2007 point. But I think @sorenmau.bsky.social is right that the biographical reason I don't engage with VFT is my more analytic background. I think its a fair critique that I should have done so (thought I'm not sure to what extent I would've ended agreeing/taking it on)
