The accompanying article states: "In the present revolution the women have shown themselves almost worthy of their sisters of 1792-93." It is more generally critical of the "Amazons of the Commune," however, describing them as "coarse, brawny, unwomanly, and degraded; picturesque certainly, but by no means pleasing.".
