This print captures the historic moment of the Quiberon Expedition in 1795, showcasing the French victory over the English expedition to Quiberon, Brittany, France. The line engraving, created by a talented French artist in 1817, beautifully depicts the intensity and grandeur of this significant event. In this image, we witness an attack taking place on a picturesque bay. The movement and action are palpable as soldiers engage in warfare with unwavering determination. The exterior scene showcases a bustling harbor filled with ships from both sides of the conflict - a testament to the magnitude of this military operation. The composition also highlights key elements such as a prominent church standing tall amidst chaos and destruction.
