520			_aOn June 4, 1899, President Loubet went to the hippodrome at Auteuil to watch the steeplechase. When he mounted the presidential rostrum, Baron Christiani struck him repeatedly with his cane but only managed to strike his hat. Very quickly, the image of the dented hat featured in caricatures in order to ridicule the representative of the Republic. A mocking artist, Orens Denizard, took advantage of this deprecating cliché by going as far as to present France as a country of smashed hats, making use of it twenty-seven times in his work, a persistence that ended up antagonizing some collectors of satirical images. Worried about retaining his clients, Orens next came up with a number of visual tricks in order to have other artists crush the presidential hat in their drawings. Finally, taking advantage of an attempt against the life Alphonse XIII in Paris in June 1905, he employed the explosive power of the bomb in order to banish definitively from his work the famously crushed presidential hat.
