1792 Assembly love-in!

Hi - I'm going to try and upload a picture I found and love, as a follow-up to the 'neoclassical slash' on estellacat's page. It's from vol 13 of Prudhomme's weekly newspaper Revolutions de Paris, 7 Juillet 1792. I've never tried uploading pics to this site, so apologies if my first attempt at an lj cut fails horribly, as the preview suggests it will, but I just feel I have to share it with the world (or that little corner of it that likes a bit of republican slashiness, anyway).

Oh, hell - it's come out tiny! Any technical suggestions welcome, but I'm on dial-up (because I live in a picturesque British village full of thatched cottages and old people and footballers, and broadband's tentacles haven't reached this far yet) and photobucket crashes my server...

the size is good, all you've gotta do is click on it once, then again when it takes you to the new page, and you can see it huge. thanks for posting this, by the way, they're all so hilariously cute!

Yay! Thanks for the tip, I didn't know it did that. The original etching's quite small, but it's amazing how much detail there is in there - and some of it looks really intense (where are their hands going?!)
