This place was first called the Place des Conquites, then the Place Louis le Grandy and afterwards the Place Venddme, In the middle formerly stood a colossal eques- trian statue of Louis XIV., in bronze, by Girardinand Keller, erected in 1669, but demolished on August 10, 1792 ; the bronze figures that ornamented its base were saved, and are still to be seen in the Musee de la Sculpture Moderne, The mutilated pedestal remained till 1806, when it was replaced by the triumphal pillar, erected by ...Napoleon, to commemorate the success of his arms in the German campaign of 1 805. This column is an imitation of the pillar of Trajan at Rome, of which it preserves the proportions on a scale larger by one twelfth.
Its total' elevation is 135 feet, and the diameter of the shaft is 12 feet. The pedestal is 21 feet in height, and from 17 to 20 in breadth. The pedestal and shaft are of stone, covered with bas-reliefs, representing victories of the French army, in bronze, made from 1 200 pieces of brass cannon taken from the Russians and Austrians.
