"The Zenith of French Glory;—the Pinnacle of Liberty. Religion, Justice, Loyalty, & All The Bugbears Of Unenlightened Minds, Farewell!" is a renowned satirical print by the British caricaturist James Gillray, published on February 12, 1793. This work is emblematic of Gillray's sharp wit and intricate artistry, which positioned him as one of the foremost political satirists of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The print serves as a scathing critique of the radical outcomes of the French Revolution, particularly targeting the execution of King Louis XVI and the revolutionary government's aggressive secularization policies.

Gillray's composition is rich with symbolism and allegory, depicting a fantastical scene where traditional pillars of society such as religion, justice, and loyalty are being discarded. The title itself is laced with irony, suggesting that the zenith or highest point of French glory is simultaneously a moment of moral and societal decline, as values once held sacred are now being jettisoned in the name of liberty. This artwork reflects the widespread contemporary British fear and skepticism towards the French Revolution, capturing the tumultuous spirit of the times.

The print is characterized by Gillray's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to convey complex political messages through visual means. His use of exaggerated figures and dramatic scenes not only entertained but also provoked thought and discussion among the public. "The Zenith of French Glory" is a testament to Gillray's enduring legacy as a commentator on the political and social issues of his day, offering insights into the period's public sentiment and the broader European reaction to the events unfolding in France.

As with much of Gillray's work, this print was circulated widely, contributing to the public debate on the French Revolution and its implications for Britain and the rest of Europe. Today, it remains a significant piece of political satire, studied for its artistic merit as well as its historical context, offering a window into the complexities and controversies of the late 18th-century political landscape.
