French Revolution, Storming of the Bastille, 1789

Entitled: "Arrestation de Mr. de Launay, gouverneur de la Bastille, le 14 Juillet 1789." Shows a mob of revolutionaries after the storming the Bastille, when late in the afternoon, Governor De Launay, of the Bastille, is arrested and taken away, on the lower left, at the beginning of the Revolution in 1789. The people of Paris, fearful that they and their representatives would be attacked by the royal military, and seeking to gain ammunition and gunpowder for the general populace, stormed the Bastille, a medieval fortress and prison in Paris. Besides holding a large cache of ammunition and gunpowder, the Bastille had been known for holding political prisoners whose writings had displeased the royal government, and was thus a symbol of the absolutism of the monarchy. The storming became a symbol of the abuses of the monarchy and its fall was the start of the Revolution. The French Revolution was a period of far-reaching social and political upheaval in France that lasted from 1789 until 1799, and was partially carried forward by Napoleon during the later expansion of the French Empire. Etching by Pierre Gabriel Berthault, 1804.
