The print shows a large crowd of people gathered to witness the event, with a team of men pulling the statue on a wooden sled. This scene illustrates a historical event that marked the transition from the reign of Louis XVIII to that of Charles X, signifying a shift in the political landscape of France. The work is an excellent example of 19th-century French lithographic art, showcasing the artist's skill in capturing the detail and drama of the event.
