Random query

 Salut et fraternité citoyens,

So I was telling someone about some illustration of Robespierre I'd seen in which he's a vampire...but now I can't find it anywhere! From what I remember, it's Robespierre with fangs in front of a guillotine (or maybe several guillotines), probably some 19th c. British portrayal. I thought I'd even seen it on this community, but I can't seem to find it as I peruse the archives. In any case, I'm sure one of you has seen it and can direct me to the source.

Merci!

Are you thinking of the recent magazine cover (and I have now completely forgotten which magazine) which was a cartoon of the anon portrait of Robespierre from the carnavalet with bloody vampire teeth drawn in and I think the strapline "Robespierre the man who invented terror"?
