Picture taken on 20 April 1897, in front of the gaolhouse of Lons-le-Saunier, Jura. The man who was going to be beheaded was Pierre Vaillat, who killed two elder siblings on Christmas Day, 1896, in order to rob them and was condemned for his crimes on 9 March 1897. <br />For a time, executions by guillotine were a popular entertainment that attracted great crowds of spectators. Vendors would sell programs listing the names of those scheduled to die. Many people would come day after day and vie for the best seats; knitting female citizens (tricoteuses) formed a cadre of hardcore regulars, inciting the crowd as a kind of anachronistic cheerleaders. Parents would bring their children. By the end of the Terror the crowds had thinned drastically. Excessive repetition had staled even this most grisly of entertainments, and audiences grew bored.<br /> <br />Eventually, the National Convention had enough of the Terror, partially fearing for their own lives, and turned against Maximilien Robespierre. In July 1794, he was arrested and executed in the same fashion as those whom he had condemned. This arguably ended the Terror, as the French expressed their discontent with Robespierre's policy by guillotining him.[15]</i><br /><br />Madame Guillotine, also known as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillotine" rel="nofollow">The National Razor</a><br /><br /><br />Somewhere between 16,000 and 40,000 got "shaved."Rufus IIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05297231055991566183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-17580596030355583082011-04-13T22:42:10.711-04:002011-04-13T22:42:10.711-04:00You'd think by the time a man's my age he&...You'd think by the time a man's my age he'd get used to it.Rufus IIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05297231055991566183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-27308979295099385602011-04-13T22:40:27.679-04:002011-04-13T22:40:27.679-04:00Boy I hate getting lied to.
