Framed Print of The French Siege of Paris: advanced post in the village of Issy, 1871. Creator: C. R
The French Siege of Paris: advanced post in the village of Issy, 1871. The advanced post of the Communist forces in the village of Issy, which has been the scene of much severe fighting, is sketched by [Mr. W. Simpson], who visited the place one day last week. He found more than one small barricade in the village street. Each barricade stretched across half the breadth of the street, and was armed with a single gun. The street runs westward, towards the Meudon station, where the Versailles troops had a battery. The Communist guns were elevated so as to send their shells over a rising ground between Issy and the enemy, and drop them into the Meudon station battery. The village was full of the Communist troops, but most of the people stayed in their houses, and the wineshops, as well as the vivandières, were doing a good trade. Fort Issy is to the left hand in our view. The Versailles, or regular army, had directed against Issy eight batteries - one at the so-called Tour des Anglais between Clamart and Fontenay, one between Clamart and Meudon, two at the foot of Meudon, three on the terrace of Meudon, and one at Sèvres'.
