In this dynamic piece, Thony Loui captures General François Capois, known as Capois-La-Mort, charging fearlessly under fire at the Battle of Vertières in 1803. Even after his horse is struck by a cannonball, he rises, sword in hand, rallying his troops with: “En avant!”
The French paused their fire to salute his courage, an act of rare wartime respect. This iconic moment, imagined by Loui since his school days, also appears in Haïti, un pays unique au monde by Lilas Desquiron.
