Sic Transit Gloria

I do a bit (a lot) of History (esp. French Rev + Napoleon), and I draw sometimes. If you're looking for my art click the tab bar on the MENU bar on top left of the page- there should be a navigation tab there.

Ensign Baker’s face during this entire scene breaks my heart. He’s so happy for this boy he barely knows and he has to be thinking about how much Abigail loves and misses Cicero. And then remembering his own terrible childhood and his longing for family and love.

And then fucking cabbage boy kills him. Fuck my feelings.

Enrôlements volontaires du 22 Juillet 1792 by Auguste Vinchon. 

Musée de la Révolution française de Vizille, France.

C'est sur la place de l'Hôtel-de-Ville, où les enrôlements se font en plus grand nombre, que Vinchon nous transporte. En avant de l'amphithéâtre, le général Dumouriez encourage les citoyens dans cet élan national et, près de lui, Pétion, maire de Paris, promet aux mères éplorées que la ville subviendra aux besoins des enfants en l'absence des pères. A la tête de cette jeunesse qui part si ardente, on distingue le jeune Gouvion-Saint-Cyr, alors officier, et qui fut nommé général deux ans plus tard.
