So he sends to his friend a small plandessiné and captioned: "For Louis XVI, the scaffold was at location A (between the pedestal of the statue of Louis XV and the entrance to the Champs-Elysées). For all the others - the Queen, the Girondins, the Dantonists - from May 8, 1793 to June 18, 1794, it was placed in B (between the pedestal of the statue and the entrance to the Tuileries Gardens). Then it was moved to the Place du Trône"...
