'Battle of Zurich', 25 September, 1799, (c1800-c1842). Three months after the first battle of Zurich, a reinforced Marshal Massena (1758-1817) found himself in the unenviable position of having to fend off vastly greater numbers of Russians under the legendary Field Marshal Suvarov.The result of Massena's victory was the destruction of the legend of Suvarov who, blamed for the debacle, died only months afterwards - and the withdrawal of Russia from the Second Coalition. Part of the collection at the Galerie des Batailles, Versailles.
