EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense naval engagement between the "Quebec" and the "Surveillante" in 1779. Painted by Auguste Rossel De Cercy, this copy of his original work showcases a historic battle that took place on October 6th, 1779. The scene is filled with drama as these two mighty ships clash amidst a tumultuous sea. The French ship, "Quebec" stands tall and proud, its sails billowing in the wind as it unleashes a devastating barrage of cannon fire upon its English counterpart. The "Surveillante" though smaller in size, puts up a valiant fight against its formidable opponent. Flames erupt from both vessels as they exchange volleys of gunfire, creating an inferno on the open waters. Rossel De Cercy's attention to detail brings this momentous event to life. Every brushstroke conveys the sheer power and chaos of naval warfare during this era. The viewer can almost feel the tension and hear the thundering sounds echoing across the ocean. Displayed at Musee de la Marine in Paris, France, this print serves as a reminder of our rich maritime history and honors those who fought bravely at sea. It is a testament to human resilience and determination when faced with adversity. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of history's most thrilling battles—a true masterpiece capturing both artistry and historical significance for all admirers to appreciate
