First French victory in the Italian campaign, in which 20,000 men were engaged, commanded by General Bonaparte, and around 25,000 armed men from Austria and the Kingdom of Sardinia, commanded by General-in-Chief Johann von Beaulieu. The losses were estimated at 5,000 men wounded or killed for the French and 10,000 wounded, dead or prisoners for the Austrians and the Sardinians. Note on the painter: Vernet Antoine Charles Horace known as Carle (1759-1826) French painter, designer and lithographer. He was a pupil of his father Joseph Vernet and of Nicolas-Bernard Lépicié (1735-1884), then teacher of his son Horace Vernet (1789-1863). Prix de Rome in 1781. His father had started the fashion for seascapes; Carle Vernet brought the horse back into fashion, as the Flemish painter Philips Wouwerman (1619-1668) had done in his time. He had some problems during the Revolution: he was injured and his sister was guillotined as an émigré. Original print from 1850. The sheet is 47cm by 30cm. The engraving alone is 34.5 cm by 24.7 cm.
