Description |
English: The Order of the Holy Spirit was established in 1578 and represented the highest order of chivalry in France. Because the cross that served as its insignia was hung from a blue ribbon, the members were called the "cordon bleus" (blue ribbons.) The order was abolished during the French Revolution. In 1802, Napoleon established his own order of chivalry, the Legion of Honor. Its members were known as the "grand cordons" because of the red sash they wore. Charles X (king of France from 1824 – 1830) restored the Order of the Holy Spirit as the first order of chivalry, ahead of the Legion of Honor. The cartoon lampoons the dueling decorations, and perhaps suggests that the only happy medium between the two is nothing at all.
