The Volunteers in Sabots at the Battle of Valmy, 20th September 1792
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Battle of Valmy on September 20th, 1792. Illustrated by Louis Blanc and engraved by S. Krakow, this artwork from Histoires de la Revolution Francoise brings to life the victory of the French revolutionary army over the Prussians during the War of the First Coalition. The image depicts a group of soldiers known as "The Volunteers in Sabots" bravely charging into battle. Clad in their humble wooden clogs (sabots), these ordinary men turned volunteers display unwavering courage as they face their adversaries head-on. With bayonets fixed to their muskets, they embody determination and resilience. Caran d'Ache (Emmanuel Poire) masterfully captures every detail with his lithographic technique, bringing depth and texture to this historic scene. The composition exudes energy and tension as smoke billows from cannons in the background while soldiers engage fiercely on both sides. Preserved within Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this photograph serves as a reminder of an important turning point in French history. It symbolizes not only a military triumph but also represents unity among common people who rose up to defend their ideals against foreign aggression. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, we are transported back to that fateful day when bravery prevailed on the battlefield -
