September 1, 1870: The Defeated French Generals Formally Surrender to the Prussians at Sedan This historic photograph captures the moment of surrender at Sedan during the Franco-Prussian War. The defeat of the French army at the Battle of Sedan on September 1, 1870, marked a turning point in the war and ultimately led to the downfall of the Second French Empire. In the image, a group of defeated French generals, including Marshal Bazaine and General Bourbaki, are seen formally surrendering to the Prussian commander, King William I of Prussia. The scene takes place in the town of Sedan, where the decisive battle had taken place just days prior. The defeated French soldiers, having laid down their arms, stand in the background, adding to the somber atmosphere of the moment. The Battle of Sedan was a significant military victory for the Prussians, who had been waging war against the French since July 1870. The French army, led by Emperor Napoleon III, had initially advanced into German territory with the intention of teaching the Prussians a lesson. However, the Prussians, under the command of General Helmuth von Moltke, were able to outmaneuver the French and inflict a crushing defeat upon them. The surrender at Sedan marked the end of the French resistance and paved the way for the Prussian advance on Paris. The war ended on January 28, 1871, with the signing of the Treaty of Frankfurt, which resulted in the loss of Alsace-Lorraine to the Prussians and the establishment of the German Empire. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the military and political upheaval that took place during this period in European history.
