The Battle of Valmy by Emile-Jean-Horace Vernet. The white-uniformed infantry to the right are regulars while the blue-coated ranks to the left represent the citizen volunteers of 1791. The Moulin de Valmy was burnt on the orders of Kellermann on the day of the battle. This was the first battle fought by the Frenach after the revolution and their unexpected defeat of the Prussian Army was a major vindication for the revolutionaries.
