The artwork, created in 1806 and currently housed at the Musee et Domaine National de Versailles et de Trianon in Versailles, France, showcases the intensity and chaos of war.

The French soldier charges forward with determination and courage as he navigates through the Egyptian landscape. His steed gallops powerfully beneath him, showcasing both their strength and unity. Lejeune's masterful brushstrokes bring life to every element within this scene - from the dust kicked up by hooves to the expressions of soldiers engaged in combat.
