- Abstract
- At the carnival in Rome in 1849, attendees wore liberty caps and were cheered as
they passed the Republican Café while any attendants in livery were hissed and
hooted. This scene depicts one of the closing revels showing the crowd carrying lighted
tapers and trying to put out each other's taper with a handkerchief or towel. After this
goes on for about an hour, a gun is fired, the lights are put out and people eiher go home
or to the ball; this lasts till eleven o'clock when the carnival is over and the fasting begins.
