Amidst the tumultuous French Revolution, the Traitor Louis XVI met his demise, while the mummified remains of Henri IV, a former King of France, were unearthed by revolutionary fervor. Rare engravings depict The Austrian Panther, a symbol of resistance, and The People, Eater of Kings. In the 1880s, Dan Chatterton's anti-royalist and anti-capitalist pamphlet, The Commune, was published in England. Sir Thomas Chaloner, a 17th-century English politician, and Archibald Campbell, Scotland's anti-royalist leader during the English Civil Wars, are immortalized in portraits. Hampden, a Parliamentarian hero, was wounded at Chalgrove Field, and a proclamation for the discovery and apprehension of Charles Stuart was issued. The Absolute Kings were eventually forced to swallow the pill of the constitution, as depicted in this 1848 lithograph.
