Aanval op Valenciennes, 25 juli 1793 Possibly 1801 - 1812

This print, created by British artist William Bromley between 1801 and 1812, depicts the attack on Valenciennes, a French city, on July 25, 1793, during the French Revolutionary Wars. The scene is dominated by a sprawling battle with soldiers on horseback, infantrymen, and cannons. The artist captures the chaos and drama of the battle, using dramatic lines and contrasts of light and shade. This print is a valuable historical document and a testament to Bromley's skill as a printmaker. The print is also a significant example of the genre of military art, which flourished in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
