Abdicate Boulevard Defeat Forced Formed Napoleon Procession Prussia Rejoicing Republican Triumphant Italien


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the jubilant atmosphere in Paris following the proclamation of the Third French Republic on September 4, 1870. The French people rejoiced in the streets as the monarchy, which had been established by Napoleon III in 1852, came to an end. The defeat of France by Prussia in the Franco-Prussian War, which began in July of that year, had forced Napoleon III to abdicate. The triumphant procession in the Boulevard des Italiens, shown in this photograph, was one of many such celebrations that took place throughout the city. The crowd is seen waving tricolor flags and cheering as the Republic's new leaders pass by in an open carriage. The sense of relief and hope is palpable as the French people looked forward to a new beginning. The fall of Napoleon III and the establishment of the Third Republic marked a significant turning point in French history. It paved the way for the country's modernization and the consolidation of its democratic institutions. The Republic would go on to face numerous challenges, including the siege of Paris during the Franco-Prussian War and the tumultuous years of the Paris Commune, but it ultimately endured and became a symbol of French resilience and national pride. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer and published by Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in French history. It captures the spirit of a people who, despite the hardships they had faced, were determined to forge a new future for their country.
