EDITORS COMMENTS
September 25, 1792: The Fall of Chambery, Savoie - A Pivotal Moment in the French Revolutionary Wars This evocative print captures the poignant moment when the city of Chambery, capital of the Principality of Savoie, surrendered to the French Revolutionary Army. The date was September 25, 1792, marking a significant turning point in the French Revolutionary Wars. The image portrays a somber procession of French soldiers, led by General Jean-Baptiste Joubert, entering the city gates. The citizens of Chambery, many of them weeping, look on in despair as their once-proud city succumbs to the invading forces. The Alps in the background serve as a stark reminder of the rugged terrain that had long protected the principality from external threats. The fall of Chambery was a result of the French Revolutionary Army's relentless advance, which had begun in August 1792, when the French captured the fortified town of Fort-l'Écluse, effectively cutting off the principality's access to Italy. With their supply lines severed and their morale waning, the Savoyards were unable to mount an effective defense. The capture of Chambery marked the end of Savoyard independence and the beginning of a new era for the region. The Treaty of Paris, signed in November 1792, officially annexed the Principality of Savoie to the French Republic. The city would remain under French rule until the Congress of Vienna in 1815, when it was returned to the House of Savoy. This print is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the enduring power of historical events to shape the course of nations.
