Answer:
01
Louis XVI and Old Regime France
Louis XVI and Old Regime France: the man illustrated in all his royal finery is Louis XVI, King of France. In theory he was the latest in a line.
02
The Tennis Court Oath
The Tennis Court Oath: Shortly after the deputies of the Estates General met, they agreed to form a new representative body called the National Assembly which would take sovereign powers from the king. As they gathered to continue discussions they discovered they had been locked out of their meeting hall.
03
The Storming of the Bastille
The Storming of the Bastille: perhaps the most iconic moment in the French Revolution was when a Paris crowd stormed and captured the Bastille. This imposing structure was a royal prison, a target of many myths and legends. Crucially for the events of 1789, it was also a storehouse of gunpowder.
04
The national assembly reshapes france
The National Assembly Reshapes France: The deputies of the Estates General turned themselves into a brand new representative body for France by declaring themselves a National Assembly, and they soon went to work reshaping France.
05
The Sans-culottes
The Sans-culottes: the power of the militant Parisians – often called the Paris mob – was of great importance in the French Revolution, driving events forward at crucial times through violence.
06
March of the Women to Versailles
March of the Women to Versailles: as the revolution progressed, tensions arose over what King Louis XVI had the power to do, and he delayed passing the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen. A surge of popular protest in Paris, which increasingly saw itself as the protector of the revolution, led around 7000 women to march from the capital to the King at Versailles on the 5th 1791.
07
The Royal Family is caught at Varennes
The Royal Family is caught at Varennes: having been bought to Paris at the head of a mob, the royal family of Louis XVI were effectively imprisoned in an old royal palace. After much worrying on the part of the king, a decision was taken to try and flee to a loyal army. On June 20th 1791 the royal family thus disguised themselves, crowded into a coach, and set off.
08
A Mob Confronts the King
As the King and some branches of the revolutionary government worked to create a lasting constitutional monarchy, Louis remained unpopular thanks, in part, to his use of the veto powers he’d been given. On June 20th this anger took the form of a Sans-culotte mob who broke into the Tuileries palace and marched past the King, shouting their demands.
09
The September Massacres
The September Massacres: In August 1792 Paris felt itself increasingly under threat, with enemy armies closing in on the city and supporters of the recently deposed king threatening his enemies.

The Guilllotine
The Guilllotine: Before the French Revolution, if a noble was to be executed it was by beheading, a punishment which was swift if done correctly. The rest of society, however, faced a range of long and painful deaths.
11
Louis XVI's Farewell
Louis XVI's Farewell: The monarchy was finally fully overthrown in August 1792, by a planned uprising. Louis and his family were imprisoned, and soon people began to call for his execution as a way of fully ending the kingdom and giving birth to the Republic.

Marie Antoinette: Marie Antoinette, Queen Consort of France thanks to her marriage to Louis XVI, was an Austrian archduchess, and probably the most hated women in France. She had never fully overcome prejudice about her heritage, as France and Austria had long been at odds, and her reputation was damaged by her own free spending and exaggerated and pornographic slanders in the popular press.

The Jacobins

The Jacobins: Right from the start of the revolution, debating societies had been created in Paris by deputies and interested parties so they could discuss what to do. One of these was based in an old Jacobin monastery, and the club became known as the Jacobins.
