Printed on laid paper in folio format with original fold showing expected toning and edge wear consistent with age. Measures 16.3 in. x 20.5 in. Shelved at Rockville Room E. Jean-Lambert Tallien 1767-1820 was a prominent journalist and political actor during the French Revolution rising from modest origins to become one of the era's influential voices in revolutionary print culture. Initially a supporter of radical reform he gained prominence through his writings and participation in Parisian political circles later serving as a representative on mission in Bordeaux where he played a controversial role during the Reign of Terror. Tallien is best remembered for turning against the excesses of that period: in 1794 he was a central figure in the Thermidorian Reaction helping to orchestrate the downfall of Robespierre and the end of the Terror. In the years that followed his political influence waned and he lived a comparatively quieter life though he remains historically significant as both a revolutionary propagandist and a key participant in one of the Revolution's turning points. 1410444.
