This colored engraving titled "Le Vengeur du Peuple Sinking at the Battle of Ouessant, 1st June 1794" depicts a dramatic moment in naval history. The print showcases the sinking of the French ship Le Vengeur du Peuple during the intense battle off the coast of Ouessant.

The artist's attention to detail brings this historical event to life, capturing not only the intensity but also highlighting elements such as combat and attack strategies employed by both navies.
