The image depicts Louis Napoleon, President of France at the time, bravely riding through the chaotic streets of Paris during the French coup d'état of December 1851. The scene is filled with tension and drama as soldiers stand guard around barricades while civilians tend to wounded comrades. Louis Napoleon's presence on horseback symbolizes his determination and leadership amidst this tumultuous period. Dressed in a top hat, he exudes an air of authority as he surveys the scene before him. The flickering torches illuminate both the president and those affected by this violent uprising.

Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into a significant historical event that shaped France's future. It serves as a testament to resilience and courage in uncertain times while showcasing Bartsch's artistic talent for capturing emotion within his work.
