A Vendee peasant dressed up as a royalist rebel. The caption explains that “Old Jean’ lives in a tumbledown cottage at Moulins near Chatillon (now Mauleon), with his indescribably chaotic collection of old clothes. ‘Old Jean is superstitious’ but ‘takes a philosophical view of the future. He is one of a kind and must be seen to be believed’. The Chounan guerrillas had fought the republican government in the west of France in the days of this man’s great-great-grandfather.
