Le Quatorze Juillet!

As The French Say, OFF W/ THEIR HEADS!

The execution of Robespierre and his supporters on 28 July 1794. Note: the beheaded man (6)
is not Robespierre, but Couthon: Maximilien Robespierre (10) is shown sitting on the cart,
dressed in brown, wearing a hat, and holding a handkerchief to his mouth.
His younger brother Augustin (8) is being led up the steps to the scaffold.
