1848 Abdication Departure Occupying Palais Philippe Revolution Tuileries Volunteers

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the poignant moment of departure for the volunteers who had been occupying the Palais des Tuileries since the abdication of King Louis-Philippe in 1848. The historical significance of this event marked the beginning of the French Revolution of 1848, a pivotal period in French history. The Palais des Tuileries, located in the heart of Paris, had served as the official residence of the French monarchy since the 16th century. However, when King Louis-Philippe was forced to abdicate on February 24, 1848, the palace became the symbolic center of the revolutionary movement. Thousands of volunteers, inspired by the spirit of change and the desire for a more democratic government, flocked to the palace to join the cause. In this photograph, the volunteers, dressed in various attire, are seen bidding farewell to the Palais des Tuileries as they prepare to leave for the National Assembly in Versailles. Their faces reflect a mix of determination, hope, and sadness, as they embark on the next stage of their revolutionary journey. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the courage and conviction of the volunteers during this transformative period in French history. The departure of the volunteers from the Palais des Tuileries marked the end of the occupation and the beginning of a new chapter in the French Revolution of 1848. Ultimately, the revolution resulted in the establishment of the Second French Republic and the end of the Bourbon monarchy, paving the way for significant political and social reforms in France.
