June 1789: locked out of their meeting hall, the Third Estate took refuge in a tennis court at Versailles and pledged not to disperse until France had a constitution of its own making. A sports hall turned asylum for a nation. One deputy refused the oath, and sat with his arms crossed.
David set out to paint it and gave up; the Revolution kept condemning the men in it.
Today this place changed hands, and we're asked to accept a new social contract or go read-only. Worth reading the terms closely before we pledge anything.
