Flags fluttering in the background serve as reminders of battles fought under General Hoche's leadership. This engraving serves not only as an homage to an esteemed military figure but also highlights France's rich history during this tumultuous period. This image can be found in Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France - a testament to its cultural significance.
