The scene unfolds at the foot of the iconic July column on Place de la Bastille, where a massive crowd has gathered to witness this historic event. The lithograph, created by an anonymous artist from the 19th century, showcases intricate details and architectural elements that transport us back to that fateful day on February 25th, 1848. The bustling streets are filled with people from all walks of life, their faces reflecting a mix of emotions ranging from excitement to uncertainty. Amidst this sea of individuals stands the July column as a symbol of national pride and unity.
