Commentary

Au revers une étoile sépare le mot “fraternité” du mot “liberté”, en bas sous l’année. Le 21 Mai 1848, Le Champ de Mars accueille la fête de la Concorde qui rassemble les corporations de Paris. A cette occasion défilent les légions de la garde nationale, de la garde mobile (corps militaire professionnel créé au lendemain de la Révolution de Février, recruté dans la jeunesse populaire). Un mois plus tard éclate l'insurrection de Juin.

Historical background

SECOND REPUBLIC

(02/24/1848-12/2/1852)

During the February 1848 revolution, Louis-Philippe abdicated in favor of his grandson, but the latter was not recognized by the Chambers and, on February 24, the Republic was proclaimed by a decree of the provisional government at the Town Hall by Ledru-Rollin and Lamartine. A provisional government is formed which proclaims the freedom of work, the abolition of the death penalty in political matters, universal suffrage. The national workshops were created in March 1848. The legislative elections sent a majority of moderate Republicans to the Chamber. The executive committee constitutes a provisional government on May 10, made up of five members: Arago, Garnier-Pagès, Lamartine, Ledru-Rollin, Marie. The closing of the national workshops provoked riots which were bloodily repressed by General Cavaignac who was appointed chairman of the council. The rebels are executed, imprisoned, deported. The constitution of the republic is voted on November 12. Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte was elected President of the Republic on December 10, 1848..
