At Wattignies: A Drummer-Boy's Brave Deception, October 1793 This evocative image captures the moment of deception and bravery during the Battle of Wattignies, which took place on October 17, 1793, during the French Revolutionary Wars. In the foreground, a young drummer-boy named Sthrau, dressed in the uniform of the French Revolutionary Army, beats his drum with unwavering determination. His drumbeat echoes through the battlefield, sending waves of fear and confusion among the approaching Austrian forces. The Austrians, taken aback by the seemingly relentless advance of the French army, assume they are surrounded. However, this is all part of a cunning ruse orchestrated by the French commander, Jean-Baptiste Jourdan. Sthrau's drumming was a clever tactic to mislead the enemy and create an illusion of a larger force. Unfortunately, the Austrians soon realized their mistake. In a tragic turn of events, they attacked the unsuspecting young hero, killing him in the heat of the battle. Sthrau's bravery, though short-lived, played a significant role in the French victory at Wattignies. This event marked a turning point in the French Revolutionary Wars, as it demonstrated the resourcefulness and determination of the French forces in the face of adversity. This historical print, titled "At Wattignies: A Drummer-Boy Named Sthrau Beats His Drum," is a poignant reminder of the heroism and sacrifices made during the French Revolutionary Wars. The image evokes a sense of awe and admiration for the young drummer-boy who, despite his tender age, bravely contributed to the French military effort.
