Légende
'Day of 13 Vendemiaire of the Year 4', 1797, (1921). 'Journée du XIII Vendemiaire, l'an IV'. Depiction of events on 5 October 1795: royalist-influenced sections of Paris revolted to prevent the adoption of a new constitution that protected the position of the radicals. The willingness of Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) to fire cannons on the demonstrators - in his words, to 'give them a whiff of grapeshot' - consolidated the government's control. Engraving by Isidore-Stanislas Helman after Charles Monnet. From "Napoleon", by Raymond Guyot. [H. Floury, Paris, 1921]
