| Meer info | = Very rare satirical transformation print - especially together with the original accompanying letterpress poem. Northern Netherlands cartoon on the the fall of French General Charles François Dumouriez in 1793, where the show changes four times with the opening folds of sheets. Started on the outside with Dumouriez at full length standing with a gun with Jacobian hat planted on the legal tables and ends inside with a performance in which the general is thrown in hell by a devil. A text sheet belongs to the print. Rarely found together. Frederik Muller, Historieplaten 5222A: "Openslaande spotprent op Dumouriez, die op No.1 staat afgebeeld met Jacobijnenmuts op en het geweer op de tafelen der wet geplant; op 2 wordt hij door den duivel aangegrepen, terwijl de zon Holland hem in het gezigt schijnt; op 3 blaast de duivel hem koningsmoord in; op 4 wordt hij door den duivel gestropten in het hellevuur geworpen. Zonder naam van de graveur. Hierbij op een afzonderlijk blad 4 vierregelige Hollandsche verzen in boekdruk." Charles François Dumouriez (1739-1823) was a French military officer, minister of Foreign Affairs, minister of War in a Girondin cabinet and army general during the French Revolutionary War. Dumouriez is one of the names inscribed under the Arc de Triomphe, on Column 3. With General Kellermann he shared the first French victory at Valmy where the Prussian army was forced to draw back. He rapidly advanced north (till Moerdijk); before entering Holland he decided to return to Brussels when the French armies lost territory in the east of Belgium and the Siege of Maastricht (1793). He disagreed with his successor Pache, the radical Convention and Jacobin deputies, like Robespierre and Marat, on the annexation of the wealthy Netherlands and the introduction of assignats. After losing the Battle of Neerwinden (1793), he deserted the Revolutionary Army. He refused to surrender himself to the recently installed Revolutionary Tribunal - as he would be executed - and defected to the Austrian army. |
