The image showcases Leon Gambetta, a prominent politician and statesman, passionately addressing a jubilant crowd in Paris. The context surrounding this event is crucial to understanding its significance. Following the disastrous defeat of the French by the Prussians at Sedan and the capture of Napoleon III, General Jules Trochu and Gambetta took charge, overthrowing the Second Empire and establishing a Government of National Defence. This marked the birth of what would become known as the Third Republic. In this scene filled with excitement and optimism, flags proudly wave high above heads adorned with patriotic fervor. The tricolor flag symbolizes unity among citizens who have come together to fight for their country's freedom during times of war.
