The French Revolution is widely and almost pathologically misunderstood as a liberation from tyranny, a European counterpart to the American Revolution. In fact, it was a sadistic, anomic bloodbath and iconoclasm, the inevitable result of the Enlightenment, of reason divorced from faith, incited by Freemasonry and the secularist zeitgeist.

A valiant few—led by such giants as Jacques Cathelineau, Charles de Bonchamps, and Henri de la Rochejaquelein—staged a resistance, particularly in the Vendée, in western France. Unflagging in their fidelity to both their king and their King, the counterrevolutionaries sewed onto their uniforms patches depicting the Sacred Heart, over their motto: God the King. Our design is a facsimile made from a photograph of one of these original patches.
