Summary
| Description |
English: The Quadriga, symbol of the systematic looting perpetrated by the napoléonic régime (all over Europe from 1796 to 1814), depicted being prepared for its return to the Brandenburger Tor, Berlin, at the end of the Befreiungskrieg which coincided with the end of the Guerra de la Independencia Española led by the Duke of Wellington. The Quadriga, then and now most prominent public sculpture of Berlin, had shockingly been taken to Paris in 1806 (► http://ghdi.ghi-dc.org/sub_image.cfm?image_id=2696), upsetting bitterly the Prussians. On the right, two Parisians learn with dismay of the abdication of their emperor on April 4tɦ, 1814. |
