Summary

Description"Les formes acerbes". Library of Congress description: "Print shows Joseph Le Bon, as a shirtless, crazed madman, standing on a pile of decapitated bodies between two guillotines, he is drinking blood from a chalice as he fills another chalice with the blood spewing from freshly decapited victim. Notice of his own execution appears at the bottom center of the print: Condamné à mort, à Amiens. Executé le 15 Octobre 1795." Caption (in French [modernized spelling]): "Cette gravure allégorique représente Joseph Le Bon*, posté entre les deux guillotines d'Arras et de Cambrai, tenant deux calices dans lesquels il reçoit d'une main et s'abreuve de l'autre du sang de ses nombreuses victimes, immolées au-delà de 550 dans les deux communes. Il est monté sur des groupes de cadavres entassés les uns sur les autres. D'un côté, deux furies, dignes compagnes de ce cannibale, animent des animaux moins féroces qu'elles, à dévorer les restes des malheureuses qu'elles ne peuvent plus tourmenter ; de l'autre, sont nombre de détenus de l'un et l'autre sexe, avancés sur le bord du précipice, tendant les mains au ciel, où ils aperçoivent la Convention Nationale, à qui la justice dévoile la vérité, tenant deux brochures intitulées, l'une, les angoisses de la mort, ou idées des horreurs des prisons d'Arras, rédigées par les auteurs dans leurs fers ; l'autre, atrocités exercées envers les femmes. Le fond du tableau représente des prisons et indique le résultat des ouvrages présentés par la vérité. Ainsi donc répétons ce refrain du réveil du peuple : Guerre à tous les agents du crime ! / Poursuivons-les jusqu'au trépas, / Partagez l'horreur qui m'anime, / Ils ne nous échapperont pas. *Condamné à mort à Amiens. Exécuté le 15 octobre 1795."
