Excerpt from La Vie A Paris Pendant une Année de la Révolution (1791-1792)
Dans les dernières minutes du 20 juin 1791, la fa mille royale quittait les Tuileries furtivement, par une porte de service, sous des déguisements, pour y rentrer, moins de cinq jours après, en prisonnière et en inculpée. Le 20 juin 1792, le peuple envahis sait pour la première fois les Tuileries, préludant ainsi à la journée décisive du 10 août, et le roi pro longeait de quelques semaines la durée nominale de la royauté en coiffant le bonnet rouge.
