This is a picture during the french revolution. in the back ground there is smoke which most likely means kaos. In this battle there were alot of casulaties i can tell because there are bodies all over the floor. there was a solider holding the new flag which means that they won this battle. there are also alot of women in the french revolution.
This is a picture of the fall of the Bastille. This is a prison that was very famous at the time it only held seven prisoners. its fall started the french revolution. The middle and lower class banded together to take over the king. The people saw this prison as a symbol of him and took it down brick by brick it was very symbolic for them.

This is a picture of a women holding the new flag. this means that women are gaining rights. This is a very important part of the revolution. There are also a lot of dead people and this means that there was a lot of death during the revolution.
In conclusion i saw similar themes in all pictures.
