Légende

The French Siege of Paris: troops encamped at the Palace of St. Cloud, 1871. 'The French siege of Paris, as it may properly be called, still affords subjects for our Illustrations; and one of our Special Artists, who saw and sketched many scenes of the late war between the French and Germans, is now in Paris, having just left Versailles, to furnish us with sketches of this domestic war, which seems much worse than the other...From Versailles the whole way to the bridge of Neuilly there is a continued line of defences and reserves. In the park of St. Cloud there is a vast camp, and the artillery have the admirable earthworks and barricades constructed by the Prussians'. From "Illustrated London News", 1871.
