The French Siege of Paris: advanced battery at the Pont de Neuilly, 1871. The French siege of Paris, as it may properly be called, still affords subjects for our Illustrations; and one of our Special Artists, who saw and sketched many scenes of the late war between the French and Germans, is now in Paris, having just left Versailles, to furnish us with sketches of this domestic war, which seems much worse than the other...The left wing of the Versailles army now holds Asni?res, and its flank is protected by the Seine towards Bezons, the Prussians holding the opposite bank. Courbevoie and Puteaux are occupied in force, and the bridge of Neuilly is covered by a strong t?te de pont in the form of a barricade, holding a battery which shells Porte Maillot. From "Illustrated London News", 1871.
