The Third Republic, established in France after the fall of Napoleon III's Second Empire, was a period marked by political turmoil and societal changes. This era witnessed the rise of influential figures and iconic landmarks that shaped the nation's history. One notable event during this time was Edouard Drumont's speech, which caused a stir and became the cover story for La Libre Parole in 1897. Drumont's words reflected the prevailing sentiments of anti-Semitism prevalent at that time. Satirical publications like Satirique en Couleurs captured the essence of the Third Republic through their humorous galleries featuring prominent characters such as Louise Michel and Camille Pelletan. These illustrations depicted them as animals like pelicans or toads, adding an amusing twist to their political personas. The Eiffel Tower, built for the 1889 Exhibition Gardens, stood tall as a symbol of progress and modernity during this era. Its towering presence showcased France's technological advancements while becoming an enduring icon recognized worldwide. Life along the Seine River also played a significant role in shaping daily life during this period. A lithograph from 1878 showed a riverboat gliding along its waters—a scene reminiscent of leisurely pursuits enjoyed by Parisians at that time. Fashion trends were another aspect that defined society during this republic. The Cabinet des Estampes at Bibliotheque Nationale housed prints showcasing fashion styles from bygone eras—an indication of how people sought inspiration from history even then. Bicycling gained popularity among women in 1896, with lithographs capturing "Ladies on Wheels. " This newfound freedom allowed women to explore their surroundings independently while breaking traditional gender norms. Events such as Concours Hippique brought together equestrian enthusiasts who admired skilled riders performing daring feats within Palais d'Industrie. Fashionable spectators adorned themselves with bonnets, shawls, flounced dresses, and parasols—creating a vibrant atmosphere.
